Well the first piece of news I want to share is that I will be taking part in the Alnmouth Art Festival. This starts on Friday, 26th June at 6pm and will be open to the public on the Saturday, 27th and Sunday 28th June, 2009. The pieces on display will all be framed and up for sale. I will not find out the actual venue till nearer the time, but there will be several artists taking part and we will spread our work around Alnmouth establishments - should be a nice trip out so it's all very exciting. In the meantime I have had not such good luck - I set the garage on fire when I got a bit ambitious on one of my projects! Taught me a valuable lesson about respecting materials and fortunately there was no damage other than the piece itself! I was just getting over that when the following weekend I broke my foot! It happened sooo easily by losing my balance and pirouetting down the conservatory steps. It's a pity there wasn't a camcorder about as at least I could have made £250 out of the misfortune ha ha. Anyway I am now lumbering around in a below the knee cast. I go back to hospital on the 24th April, so fingers crossed I get to lose the boot.
I have put another 5 paintings in to be framed and as I've had my wings clipped so to speak I have plenty of time to get down and dirty with my paint again. This time though I will be painting 'plein air' as I don't want to have a repeat of the fire.
As soon as I get news of venues at Alnmouth I will post here and let you all know.
Meanwhile if anyone is interested in purchasing any of the pieces in my galleries please contact me and I can give you details of price and/or if its still available.
See you all soon.
