At the Mall Galleries in London hanging the forthcoming 211th Exhibition of the Royal Institute of Painters in Water Colours which opens tomorrow March 30th. Thanks to the RI Council and to the great team of technicians at the Mall Galleries.
A Time of Change
My watercolour ‘A Time of Change’ which was hung at the RBA Exhibition at the Mall Galleries in London. In mid September as Summer changed to Autumn, I joined some 250.000 other members of the public who wished to pay their respects to Her Majesty The Queen. I was impressed by the positive mood of absolutely everyone that I came into contact with over a twelve hour long period of standing, shuffling forward and basically ‘hanging about’.
Our Queen was able to inspire and engender such a feeling of harmony and goodwill among complete strangers involved in this simple act of queueing for a few hours.
A Time of Change. Watercolour. 32 x 80mm
I Can See Your Tracks
When an unexpected heavy snowfall occurred in the second week of December, the view outside my studio was transformed.
‘I Can See Your Tracks’ is a song on Laura Veirs’ album, ‘July Flame’ which was playing in my head while I did a (quick) sketch in the freezing cold…..the painting took a little longer.
