Fly Me To The Moon


SOLD (90cm x 70cm) Commission

The importance and indeed the beauty of the moon is very much underestimated. Still covered in mystery, It’s almost as if it has been forgotten about since the last of the moon landings….apart from when there is an eclipse!

More people should take the time to look up once in a while and let their minds wander and wonder in awe of The Moon, Earths natural satellite.

In saying that, if asked, I bet the majority of the human race would jump at the chance of getting that little bit closer to it or better still, making one giant leap of their own on it’s surface.

In The Press

There was an article on me this week in the Norwich Evening News local paper to coincide with the start of my exhibition of limited edition prints through Castle Galleries. The Norwich branch in particular being of interest as it was my hometown for nearly 30 years!

Washingon Green's PR group put the article together with the Evening News press office also phoning me up to get any further info and quotes from me.

You can read the article here

There is also a great article in Picture Business UK magazine.

The World Is Yours

(90cm x 70cm) Contact Washington Green for enquiries

The world seems a ridiculously large place when you are young and far away places may as well be on a different planet.

Yet how many times do you hear the phrase it's a small world?

As decisions and opportunities arise throughout life, the world does seem to reduce in size, not physically of course, but certainly metaphorically. At some stage, you have the ability and the freedom to do exactly what you want. The world is your oyster and you're free to go anywhere....bar the odd strict border control!

Most people may not have the money to get to the places they want to, but a bit of drive, free thinking and adventurous spirit can compensate for any lack of funds.

The World Is Yours for the taking. Make of it what you can.

Money

(Detail from 'Money')

At what point I wonder, as a kid do you stop wanting a present for a birthday etc, and start demanding hard currency instead!?

There is nothing better than seeing a large box wrapped in all those fantastic colours and reading your name on it. Then tearing the paper with complete disregard to the care and attention it took to wrap up. Even if it is something you have asked for, the surprise is always nice.

And then you reach that age when these parcels of many colours become almost obsolete, and the shiny coinage takes preference.

However, I have found it goes full circle because the older you get, with the chance of ANY kind of currency coming your way being slim, just having something, anything, even the smallest of boxes is gratefully received!

(90cm x 70cm) SOLD
