Bank Holiday weekend Art Demo

At Stowupland Village Hall there will be several stalls open over the Bank Holiday weekend. I have a stall there and I will be giving a live demonstration of the wet on wet technique.....and I hope to have a portrait painting project on the side too (space permitting). I shall have art supplies on display for sale and I shall be selling off some of my paintings, unframed, at bargain prices. I need to make room in my studio once again and this week alone I've sorted out several boxes of paintings that need homes. I'm sharing the stall with another artist, Pauline, and her work will also be available to purchase. Pauline will be manning the stall on all 3 days. I will only be demo-ing on the Saturday (1st May). If you 'd like to pop along and give us a look, say hello, we are in Church Road, Stowupland, Nr Stowmarket, IP14 4BQ.

Demonstration for the ladies of Ufford

I opened last night's demo with a question. Just as I was about to start my journey to rural Ufford, the car groaned and died. Luckily, within minutes Alan arrived. He diagnosed a dead battery, attached the jump leads, bringing life back within seconds. He gave me the leads (just incase I had problems starting her again) although he assured me the journey should charge the battery. So my question to the ladies of Ufford was.......'If I laid a set of jump leads on the table how many of you would actually know what to do with them?' I was relieved when about 8 ladies put their hands up. 'Good', I replied, 'Please don't any of you leave until you know my car starts'. (It did.....................)
