Acting muscle at it’s best…went to see The Cherry Orchard, Chekhov, at the Old Vic on Friday and then, The Winter’s Tale, Shakespeare, on Saturday to mark what would have been Emily’s mothers 80th Birthday. We went to BAM in Brooklyn to see her, Cherry Morris Murray, in the Sam Mendes productions a few years ago.

'Graham's response to landscape is contemplative. Creation becomes a challenge as every mark is considered as the aesthetic process unravels towards sublime resolution. Graham's preoccupations are undoubtedly formal, but his technique relies on more than simply a conscious arrangement of shape and colour. Graham aims to intuitively distil the essence of his visual experience in a much more unlimited way. Landscape provides the ideal motif; unrestricted by figures or buildings, an exploration is permitted which ultimately pervades pure creation.' Sally-Ann Schilling.
