New English Art Club NEAC at the Mall Galleries 2019

I haven't submitted artwork to the New English Art Club for their annual exhibition at the Mall Galleries before.   This year I have entered two paintings which have got through the first (digital) round of judging - they have been 'pre-selected'. 

The next step is to take them to London to see if they will be selected in round 2.   If successful, then they may be hung in the gallery.

I must wait and see...

I'm taking part in this travelling exhibition organised by the Printmakers Council.   The theme is 'Journeys' and it is showing at the London Print Studio Gallery from 5-15 March 2019 and then travels to Jack House Gallery, Portsmouth where it is on from 19-30 March 2019.

A fascinating exhibition of small prints all printed on A4 paper interpreting the theme of 'Journeys' in many creative ways.

Mid Wales Arts Centre - Poems and Prints. 24 March-5 May

I have two etchings on show in this exhibition that poets have chosen to write about.  I can't wait to know what they have written!

Mid Wales Arts opens its doors for a new season at 3pm on Sunday March 24th with an exciting exhibition which is the brainchild of Andrew Baldwin, of Aberystwyth University. Andrew has developed a non-toxic alternative to traditional etching ground (called BIG) and is in much demand throughout the world for his ground as well as his prints.

The exhibition is on until 5 May.

Poetry Afternoon

To complement the exhibition Pat Edwards and Cathy Knapp have organised an afternoon on Sunday 31st March of poetry when invited poets will be reading their work alongside the prints that inspired them.

The day will start at 2pm. The exhibition and café will be open beforehand. To book please contact:
