I'm not sure when, but it looks as though the Townhouse Open 2020 exhibition will go ahead and my submission "Woven In Time" will be included. It was originally penned in to run from June to September but dates cannot be confirmed just yet due to current Covid-19 restrictions.

I can add getting no further in Castlegate Prize to my Summer Exhibition fail. I'm now going for the Townhouse Summer Open and hoping that the Urban Art Fair can still go ahead in July. I can't imagine being in lockdown that long but if we need to we'll have to! And there is still the Brixton Summer Art Show as well. Hopefully that will still go ahead and these two will get selected.

 I've made it down to the selection of 60 candidates from almost 700 for the Castlegate Prize!. Just got to wait to see if I get down to the 30 that will be exhibited now! Buoyed by that news I am working on a piece for consideration in the Townhouse Summer Exhibition. Not to mention a couple of pieces for the second Brixton Summer Art Show [can't find a a link to this years].

Also, I am pleased to say that the Urban Art Fair in Brixton will go ahead this year after all. On the weekend of July 4th and 5th. So I will be bringing some paintings, photographs, monoprints and possibly some linocuts, plus anything else I find time to make before then, to Josephine Avenue.

​I'm going to have some of my paintings up in Southwyck Community Hall in Brixton for the press night of its re-launch tomorrow. I'm not sure how long they will stay there but hopefully some will be permanent.

I am also working on several 24" x 20" panels for next January's exhibition which I will be entering to various competitions and submitting for group exhibitions during the year. Starting with the RA Summer Exhibition.

Unfortunately due to the greed of Lambeth Council and vastly inflated charges there will be no Urban Art Fair this year, which is very disappointing. So, I'm looking for places to sell some work at this year too.
