Art From London Markets, a-n feature

Today is the day I wrap the work due in Deptford on Tuesday. The APT have encouraged all artists not to share images of the work selected until the actual show, so not too many photos this week.

To improve my finances I started a block of six weeks work last week so my new challenge was how to get a work to a gallery within the hours 10-2 when I would be too far away. Up until now I have been able to deliver work myself. So I tried phoning Artistwithavan.com, but their phone line only works when I am in my day job and the kind of work I do means I can’t make calls, I tried contacting a couple of man with a van companies, but they were kind of tender sites who put the work out for quote and hopefully you get a call back and I did not have time for that.

So then I switched my brain on and went to the local cab company just near our house, and have arranged to drop the work off with them the night before and they will take it for me. I have been able to talk to them directly about how to handle it, I know its not going to be put in the back of a van with a whole bunch of other stuff, and we are neighbours so I know I can trust them.

So that is one job done! I am so pleased to be showing at the Creekside Open along side other artists selected by Jordan Baseman. And unable to resist at least one photograph to give just a hint of which work of mine is selected I’ll show you a little section!
