New Artist Fair

Hi everyone, I hope you are all well and enjoying getting back into painting after the long summer. I know many have taken up the 30 day challenge with Lesley, good luck, its a fantastic challenge.

The New Artist Fair was this weekend and I can't tell you how exhausted I am. My friend and I took my paintings up on Friday and spent a good two hours hanging them. There was an evening preview but we came back early because of work and family. We went back on Sunday and stayed for four hours, it was fun meeting all the other artists and visitors. I am very excited to tell you that I have an offer from a bricks and mortar gallery in Maidstone to sell my work!!!!

As of last week I am also represented by Advocate Art which is an artists agency who got in touch with me ( it makes a great change from chasing people ), so a lot has been happening and its all good.






Hopefully I will get back into painting today. :  )

  2. I just knew when you hadn't posted for a bit that you were knee deep into working for this! I'm so thrilled for you!!! Your grouping of paintings looks so wonderful all together. (And Pisho all ready to go with you - a bit of cat hair for good luck!) Hugs across the pond - Wish I could have gone to the opening ;)
