Summer Sun!

Well, it's already been a good start to June, not just because of the gorgeous summer sun we have been enjoying but also for the sale of 2 original paintings at Artery Gallery in St Andrews today along with receiving my first royalty cheque from my publisher for the limited edition prints released last November

I've now been exhibiting with Artery Gallery for just over 2 years and they have been selling out of my work on each occassion which is fantastic and a real confidence boost, as well as being a real testament to the gallery itself.

I'm currently putting together some new stories and ideas for paintings and hope to get some fresh work to the gallery soon.

I was surprised to see the amount of prints that have been sold since their release with Washington Green, particularly in the first month when they were being exhibited around the country. With the turn of the new year, things did slow up somewhat but I think that was to be expected, especially as I'm told it does sometimes take a bit of time for a new artist to 'take off' with prints.

A limited edition print can be a good option to originals and I have 2 prints on my lounge wall myself, Kid For Today and What's The Story, so providing my paintings continue to be in demand, I look forward to, and hope, new editions will be released soon.


For those of you that own either an original or a print, I hope you can enjoy them for years to come. In the meantime, enjoy the hot weather, which I'm sure wont last nearly as long :)
