I'm still working on my "A Throw Of The Dice" pieces. It's funny how an idea that you think is fully formed in your head turns out to be far from it in reality! However, I will be showing a selection of newer paintings and some older ones at the newly opened Sprout Cafe in Penzance.from August 19th until September 15th.

I'm also pleased to have made the longlist of the Visual Art Open, which makes up for the disappointment of not making it into the AIR or RWA opens. Still to find out the outcome of my Discerning Eye entry too.

.After my successful solo show at Newlyn's Jupiter Gallery I am happy to say that the Penzance Studios group show has been extended till June 30th and I have an additional two pieces in it.

I am currently working on a collection of works that hopefully will result in 10 wall works and 11 three dimensional pieces. I'm not yet sure what they will be made from yet. They are just card maquettes at the moment.

The collection will be called "A Throw Of The Dice Never Will Abolish Chance". More of which later...

I'm happy to announce that I will be showing some new work, alongside some older pieces, at Newlyn's Jupiter Gallery, from May 24th to June 2nd. The day before the Penzance Studios Spring Exhibition, which I will also be participating in, opens and coinciding with the first weekend of Cornwall Open Studios. I didn't have time to sign up for the Open Studios when I was moving down to Penzance so it's nice to be able to have something on over those weekends.

I'm going to be showing some work at last, this month. I will be participating in the Penzance Studios Spring Exhibition at Wharfside Arts Hub [Unit 7, Wharfside, Penzance] from May 25th until June 9th. Hopefully I will be able to get my large piece, "My Door Is Always Open" on show at last.

Finally managed to start thinking about new ideas and experimenting with corroding copper. My intention when moving down here was to have a studio with outside space and to work on larger pieces. Although I have a fair sized studio and outside space they are two floors away from each other and access to my studio means I am limited in the size of work I'll be able to get out of there. So, for now I'm keeping things small but persisting with the three dimensional ideas.
