Members of Activate were invited to create a piece of art in based on a sketch by Steve Foster, which was the basis for his sculpture of the same title: The Vamp.  Our members were so taken with this suggestion that The Vamp now exists in many different styles and mediums.  We wanted to exhibit the pieces as a collection and that opportunity has arisen through Brentwood Art Trail, later this summer.

The image shows my acrylic painting of The Vamp.

I am delighted to announce that I now have a Studio space at HOFS in Hadleigh, where I have been teaching my regular watercolour workshops for the last four years.  I am sharing Studio 20 with Ingrid Thorpe, an oil painter.

The studios will be open to visitors over the August Bank Holiday weekend and I will be offering a free taster workshop at 1.30 pm on Sunday 26th August, 2018.

Several of the Chelmsford Art Society members will be showing small to medium sized pieces in a group exhibition.  I will be showing a selection of my watercolours, framed under glass.

The Gallery is in the centre of the Gosfield Shopping Village and Craft Centre, with great parking, café and antiques etc. (see map for location).

Do JOIN US on Sunday 5th August, 1-3 pm for live jazz (Evergreen Standards), too!

I'm excited to have been paired with Gallery 43, in Moulsham Street, for the two weeks of the Chelmsford Art Trail.  Do stop by to see a selection of my acrylics and watercolours featuring a variety of wildlife and landscape paintings.
