This year’s GNAS opens on Saturday and runs for most of September.The nave of Ripon Cathedral is a fantastic venue for this is always beautifully curated exhibition which includes a wide range of the two and three dimensional work of over 60 artists. I will be exhibiting six framed prints as well as having other work in the ’pop up’ shop.
Do come along, the exhibition is free to enter and is open every day.
‘Wildflower Meadow - Upper Wharfedale’ is one of the prints I will have on show.
A new gallery is opening in Ilkley. Called ‘The Solar Gallery’ , it is based on the first floor of Ilkley Manor House. A fascinating and beautiful structure built in the 17th century on the site of a Roman fort, it’s running was taken over recently by a trust and is now rapidly becoming a focus of the lively and highly talented cultural/visual arts scene in Ilkley. As part of this development the house’s solar has been turned into a gallery space.The first exhibition , which opens on March 30th. celebrates the two and three dimensional work of thirty members of the ‘ilkley Arts’ group and includes printmaking, painting, multi media work, ceramics and jewelry.For the moment the gallery is only open at the weekends from 10.00am. to 4.00pm. but the current exhibition will run until the 23rd of June.
I’m lucky enough part of the exhibition, showing my recent 13 colour reduction print of Eider Ducks.
If you’ve not visited the Manor House in recent years, do come along. I think you will be surprised and delighted by the work the trust has already undertaken and their plans for the future for this gem of a building!

My entry for the exhibition.
I currently have two prints in the main exhibition at Holmfirth. The Art Week is on now and if if you've never been it's well worth a visit!
Read MoreThe first exhibition of the year is coming up at the gallery at Sunnybank Mills. The theme is the artist's own neighbourhood. I've decided to interpret my 'neighbourhood' as the places I like to walk and repeatedly visit.
The exhibition is due to run between 13th January and 25th February.
On Saturday 13th January between 2.00 & 4.00pm there is to be a preview and I would be delighted if you could come along (if only for the glass of wine and a few nuts!)
