Goodbye

Bye, bye Veil!
My painting ‘The Veil’ is on its way to its new home in the USA. Packed and crated, ready to go. It is always a bit nerve-wracking to ship my work so far away. All I can do is pack it really well and hope it arrives in one piece.

  1. I love your painting, it is so sensitive and beautifully painted. A portrait and fabric what an inspired piece. Since I share your love of fabrics I wanted to give you a source to buy lace from here in the USA. Go to my blog - www.cottagelifepaintings.blogspot.com and scroll down to the painting post on 'Nestle' to get the name of the store. You can buy online. Good luck and I will continue to watch your blog to see what beauty you paint with your new fabrics.
    Yours in art,
    Pamela

2015 Exhibitions

Happy 2015!! I love looking ahead so I have been looking at any great exhibitions coming up. Not the ones with my work in it - necessarily - but the big ones at the major public galleries. Lots of newspapers do this but just like everybody else I never agree with their selection! In 2014 there were some real blockbuster exhibitions. I don’t always get to go because of time restraints (I have a young family so sometimes Rembrandt has to make way for Paddington Bear) but I really enjoyed the ‘Wedding Dresses’ exhibition at the V&A last year, as well as the major Veronese exhibition at the National Gallery. Of course the BP Portrait Award 2014 was a big one for me personally. I really wanted to see the Rembrandt exhibition but I simply ran out of time and had to skip it. I am no big exhibition-goer, but I am a wannabe. In no particular order I hope to see at least some of these promising exhibitions in 2015. Which ones would you recommend and have I missed? Sargent.
