April

The world has changed since March with social distancing, shops closed, quiet roads and constant worrying news.

To help our local artists & makers the Frome Open Art Trail will now be the Frome Virtual Art Trail to take place from 4th – 12th July. An opportunity to up IT skills, set up online galleries and shops! So, this includes my site which is to be updated soon.

Meanwhile, I have completed my painting for the client in Canberra. I have enjoyed painting the compilation of buildings in Cranmore in acrylics using palette knives & brushes, often layering paint and using a medium. The client will collect it when allowed to come over to UK for her usual visit.

Now to work on the next commission – a small painting of White Sheet Down using photos taken on a very cold January afternoon to catch the late sun. Alongside this I will be considering paintings for my Virtual Art Gallery for the Trail in July, and considering smaller paintings for the Artist Support Pledge.

I have applied to take part in the Contemporary Art Fair in Windsor in November, as we all hope that will actually be possible!
