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.

Your studio does indeed look very clean. It is the colours as well as the pack of debris. I wish I could manage to keep my area without splatters of paint and spilt turpentine.
ReplyDeleteah, but you have a different style of painting! I paint very neat and tidy, I don’t even get it on my clothes or fingers (well, usually not) and I need to be a bit tidy as there’s kids running around! So my studio is full of clutter most of the time, as it is basically too small to fit in all my stuff. I’ve put loads of old paintings away, sorted out paperwork....and voila!
