THANK YOU with a view to no matter how much art THANK YOU 

with a view to no matter how much art I post, I’ll never be able to compete with a pic of my cat…

Thank you to all who came an visited me this weekend at my new space at @arnup_studios - it was really great to have so many of my current painting students from York stop by as well as learners from years past & (the sign of our times) students who I’ve been teaching in Zoom for the past 2 (or is it 3?) years, & to actually see then in real life, legs & all!  And, of course, it was wonderful to meet & talk to so many people about art & painting…and just share my love for what I do & the joy of colour & paint. Painting is alive & well in my little corner of the world.

STUDIO OPEN - my studio is open again today, 10 ti STUDIO OPEN - my studio is open again today, 10 till 5. Come & have a look if you’re in the area. You can see all the info on @arnup_studios - but it’s a rural studio, set in a garden - my space was purpose built in the 70’s by artist Mick Arnup who trained at the RCA (& who’s daughter now runs the site) - it was his painting studio…I moved in in May, so am still bedding-in, but it’s an interesting spot to visit. 5 artists are open this weekend, 1 venue just outside York.

lovely trip down to see JOY at the Dovecot Gallery lovely trip down to see JOY at the Dovecot Gallery, Styrrup @dovecotgallery - another really fabulous space renovated & run by artists. The show was beautifully curated by Jamie @onegoodgift_official - personally I try & visit all shows that include my work, partly as a thank you to those willing to invest their time & money in showing my work, but also, (I think), it’s really important to see your work in a new context, to see how it ‘holds up’ in company, pieces that you thought were quite imposing  in your studio can suddenly look really small or insubstantial  on a gallery wall…or you may even be pleasantly surprised. It’s also just a really nice relaxed way of meeting with gallerists, curators & other artists. 

(sometimes you even get tea & homemade cake too 😉)
