It’s been an interesting week. One of the “Just One Blackbird...” images was picked up at a trade show in New York, Surtex, a show for original art and design. I’m not sure how, but I can only assume via PG Live, where I exhibited last month. A journalist from the New York Examiner has since interviewed me. The American market could be a new opportunity and one I want to explore. Many thanks to Meagan Meehan the journalist who published the article.
“Just One Blackbird...”
"A series of 12 acrylic in hardboard paintings created from sketchbook doodles as an exercise in wish fulfilment.
“Why don’t birds visit the garden as frequently? The colours used are an intensified palette to emphasise the imaginary nature of the series. The gardens are impressionistic with key elements reduced to graphic symbols (which follow on from the “Wildflowers” series).
Since the series was completed the birds have returned in larger numbers and in greater variety."
The full range can be seen here and the originals are available to buy here.
