A Homage To Keith Arnatt, A Default Pornographic Wreath
A slightly out of focus photo taken on my mobile phone on a roadside in East Sussex whilst out on a five hour walk. I should go back and take a better shot.
Gary Hulme?….er, no, actually.
Coincidences…..Travelling back from Canterbury recently I decided to call in again to see the magnificent new Jerwood Gallery, Hastings (and to eat some delicious seafood they sell next door). Downstairs a little Arts Council show of Gary Hulme paintings and sculpture with an accompanying film interview which is very insightful; he speaks well. Later that […]
Laura Marling, Swimming To Raise Money For Syrian Refugees and Leo Santos Shaw
Recent photo taken of dear friend Leo Santos Shaw, artist-designer, in Brighton’s dankest Swimming Club. Known by fans of singer-songwriter Laura Marling as the enigmatic swimmer in her pop video ‘Rambling Man’. Leo back then was then sporting a Bonnie Prince Billy-esque beard and moustache, though always looking uniquely LSS. What many don’t know is […]

A Pictionary Delivery

St. David’s Hall, Cardiff. A very good show this year I thought, best one I’ve seen in years. My ‘In Search Of Iolo Morgannwg’ (above) was in very good company. Well established names mixing with fresh, unfamiliar ones. The worthy winner was a video by Gemma Copp. At a time when galleries are lined with […]
Norfolk Wit
Photo taken recently on a bike ride through Ketteringham village in Norfolk. I always regret not taking a photo back in the time when I lived there and played cricket….in the village of Burston was a low hedge bordering the lawn of a ubiquitous bungalow…the owner had displayed his skills in topiary by clipping the […]
The Ennui Of A Saturday Afternoon
An intaglio/drypoint limited edition etching circa 1998. One of many etchings waiting to be archived and put on this website. It was inspired by many visits to Tannadice, home ground of Dundee United football ground. The view [the most Dennis The Menace of wide uninterrupted views, the wind blowing a gale off the North Sea) […]
