Hello!
As promised here are some photographs from the Brownedge Festival, it was opened by the Mayor of South Ribble on Saturday and finishes on Saturday 5th June. There are workshops and demonstrations on all week so have a look at the website for more information. Overall I think the show looks good, it's in the church so the lighting could be a little better and my work looks better on a white ground but I'm pleased with the show! The paintings are on display around the alter so there is a grand feel about walking around. There is alo a photography exhibition on too.

May 2010 - Brownedge Festival

Hello all!

It's been a little while again I know but I have still stuck to my rule of once a month! I dropped off five paintings at an open exhibition last week and........I received a letter saying 'Genridding Stream' (above) had been commended by the judges! The exhibition is the Brownedge Festival in Bamber Bridge, on Brownedge Lane. It opens on Saturday 29th May and is on for a week. There will be lots to see and do over the week like workshops, poetry and opera as well as the painting and photography exhibition, so check out the site for more information on times and days http://www.brownedgefestival.org.uk/ I will be going to the opening on the 29th May and will hopefully be able to get some pictures of the exhibition to update you. I'm also hoping to get some new paintings on the go shortly, the lovely weather is so inspiring! If not a bit hot to be working in!
