As well as one room of more recent works for sale, I will be selling all my pre-2016 works at vastly reduced prices. It’s a decision I have made to “make room for the new”, so that I can focus on new paintings in the coming year. I am pleased with all of the older […]
Giclée prints to be proud of!
In preparation for my Open Studio last week, I had a number of prints created by Replicolour near Oswestry. I was so pleased with the trueness of the colours to the originals.

I am very excited to be having an Open Studio on Saturday, 25th May 2024, 10am-4pm. There will be the grand unveiling of the largest painting yet! (of Barmouth).

I’m having an Open Studio on 1st and 2nd April 2022
I am very excited to be having an Open Studio. Believe it or not, the last one was 12 years ago, not long after we moved to Newtown. I am beavering away, and it certainly feels as if we are living in an art exhibition! 🙂 I have added lots of local scenes since 2010, […]
An exploration into Virtual Reality
Over the past few weeks, I’ve been busy setting up an exhibition in cyberspace. It really is possible! Who would have thought it? The platform I’m using is FrameVR. It does take a bit of time to learn to drive your avatar and then to position artwork on the virtual walls, but the experience is […]
