Next weekend is the ONLY chance to see my latest piece IRL. The new owner hasn't even seen it yet. It's a "surprise ish" commission and won't be gifted until June. However they have given me permission to show it at the #SpringArtsTrail (with a big red dot). So, if you want to see that sparkle for yourself make every effort to get to venue 8, Flagg, Derbyshire, UK (yes I know thats a long way for many) 23-25 May.

Give me an excuse to faff around and I will! Enjoyed a bit of colouring in today, making direction signs for the #SpringArtsTrail a week tomorrow. Hopefully everyone will be able to find Venue 8 with no problems

As you know I'm taking part in @peakdistrictartisans #SpringArtsTrail over the Bank Holiday weekend, alongside fellow PDA member Tim Rose. We are showing from my house in Flagg, Derbyshire. Tim is a regular visitor to the area, painting en plein air in the lanes around the village, and we seems to be inspired by similar views!
