June has been a busy month, apart from art fairs and trying to keep the studio tidy between each event, I was delighted to be invited to show my work at Bellwether Gallery in Northumberland. Alice has displayed the art work beautifully alongside so many wonderful artists and creatives.
You can find Bellwether behind the Boe Rigg at Charlton, Northumberland, NE48 1PE
Whilst putting together the pieces for Bellwether I realised the my work was falling into specific themes. I have begun to paint small landscapes inspired by the hedgerows, roadsides and local walks taken so far this year focusing on the amazing flora and wilderness areas we have here in the northeast. Some are the central focus of the painting whilst others are part of a landscape or seascape. This one is a grassy sea on a local walk that I painted often before yet each time I am inspired by something different.
