My exhibiton has at the Dome in Buxton has been running since last Monday at it seems to be going really well.
I have received some fantastic feedback and praise from people in the arts and total strangers who have just seen the work and felt that they had to respond to the work and feed back to me. It is really nice when someone takes the time and effort to contact you to let you know how much they love your work and what it means to them.
I have had some great news recently, I have been asked by Derby Museum and Art Gallery to put a few pieces of work in their curated landscape exhibition in April next year. The work will be exhibited alongside landscape from their collection and also alongside work from established and successful artists who deal with landscape such as Michael Porter, David Ainley and Nick Hedderley.
I have also been asked to put in a proposal for exhibition to Buxton Museum and Art Gallery.
On top of all that I have managed to get into the studios a couple of times last week and have started 3 more paintings. Hopefuly I should be able to get in and work on them on Wednesday and Friday.
I am doing some shadowing of art workshop in schools next week. As part of the residency I will be running some workshops in the spring so I thought it would be a good idea to see how it is sone. I have no experience of runnin workshops for Children so it will be really interesting to observe and hopefully learn something to help me when I do my own.
