One of my pictures was selected to show at the annual Open Show at the Tarpey Gallery at Castle Donnington.  With over 700 artworks submitted and only 172 selected I do feel honoured to be in the show this year!

This year the director Luke Tarpey has said “The show will take over the whole gallery, I’m a little nervous about that but excited too of course! Normally I would put aside the ‘permanent’ space for gallery regulars but with so many entries of such a high standard I wanted to fit in as many artists as possible.”

It really is a great gallery and if you are around the Midlands from 27th July until 7th September you will not be disappointed if you visit – it will be open every day from 10 am – 5 pm.

Artist Statement

Artist's Statement

“I want viewers to connect with the source of inspiration inherent within the paintings, firstly by their recognition of chosen elements, but ultimately to journey into the abstract thoughts around the subject and the scene…”
