30/03/2008	My studio is now based in the Q Gallery in Weston-super-Mare as of April 2008. Following my successful exhibition last year I was offered studio space at the gallery when a slot became available. The gallery holds an open studio on the first and last Saturday of every month which gives members of the public the chance to view the artists in residence studio space. Art work on display in the studio is for sale as marked.

05/11/2007	The exhibition has now closed. A massive thank you to everyone who came along to see it and especially those who have purchased a piece of work. The 'Sold Work' page has now been updated with information on the sales. Pieces that have not sold, and some others that were not in the exhibition are still available in the 'Gallery'.

20/10/2007	The exhibition has been extended for 1 week! It will now close on Sunday 4th November. If you have not been able to come along yet you have an extra week to try to make it, please remember to sign the guest book! The exhibition has also been covered by the local newspaper, the Weston and Somerset Mercury. The story can be found here.

02/04/2007	The next round of the Saatchi Gallery competition has begun, and my second painting can be found here and voted for for 1 week.

19/03/2007	I have currently created an online gallery on the Saatchi Gallery website, in order to generate more exposure for my work. As part of this, one of my paintings is being featured in a competition entitled "Showdown", where artists who have work on the site are able to enter a piece of art for visitors to score, and spotlight their work to as wide an audience as possible. The artwork that receives the most votes will go on to be exhibited at The Saatchi Gallery in London, and stands to win the one thousand pound first prize!
