Delighted to be exhibiting 2 paintings in this exhibition @ Watts Gallery with a group of artists from the SGFA. Runs alongside the current exhibition 'Scented Visions: Smell in Art 1850 - 1915, so should be a fascinating parallel show. Image: Bees in the Vegetable Garden ' #mixednedia #beekeeping

I'm excited to be taking part in Surrey Artists Open Studios this year, as a guest artist in Aileen Hamilton's studio in Redhill. The studio will be open weekends 7/8 14/15 and 21/22 June. I'm one of 12 artists and craftspeople, so lots to see. #surreyartistsooenstudios

I recommend this brilliant thread, educational and entertaining too. Thanks!
Imagine Earth's 4.6 billion-year history as a 30km journey by train from London Bridge to Reigate finishing with a walk to end in the High Street. Ready to board the prehistory ThamesLink?! Where would we see the big events along the way and where would Humans appear? 🚉🕰️ a festive thread 🧵…

So, @painter247.bsky.social asked to see more of my work. Here’s ‘Farm and Craft Shop’, from around 2021. It’s letterbox format, hope it shows up in entirety! #mixedmedia

If you love drawing, give Cynthia a follow.
These two people have never met, nor have they ever sat next to each other. First I drew the chatty woman on the train, then on the Tube I sketched the man. Back in the studio I added colour, asking myself what this couple-who-aren't-a-couple needed most. All I could think of was wallpaper.
