New exhibition in Epsom, original art, new paintings!

I am currently exhibiting at the Ebbisham Centre in Epsom, the exhibition has some exciting new paintings and is definitely worth a look! Although I work in acrylics which dry very quickly I try to keep the application of paint relatively loose, I observe colour very particularly and this means many of my paintings are quite photographic at first glance, but under closer inspection they still maintain the textural quality and energy of a painting.

First Solo Exhibition

I am currently displaying my first solo exhibition at the Ebbisham Centre in Epsom. It has been a fantastic seeing the public reaction to my work, I have enjoyed talking with visitors and I've had some very warm and encouraging feedback as well as selling 5 of the paintings.

The exhibition is a collection of landscapes and includes Surrey locations such as the river Mole and the North Downs Way. I like to paint local locations which I know and love, places which people can go to enjoy nature and quiet time away from busy lives.

Here is an article about the exhibition:

 Here are a few of my favourite paintings from this exhibition:
Tree Reflections, 21 x 21cm acrylic on board


Frensham Little Pond, 40 x 40 cm

The following pieces sold during the exhibition, I was really happy to see people enjoying my work and my profits will go towards funding my next collection and exhibition!
