I am pleased to announce that I will be showing 50 new paintings in oil and watercolour in a solo exhibition at the Royal Watercolour Society Galleries, 3-5 Whitcomb Street, London, WC2H 7HA, next to Trafalgar Square. Inspired by Constable’s walks around Brighton, the show will be open from 30 August to 10 September 2022, 11-5pm, Monday to Saturday with late opening until 8pm on Fridays. I will be holding two Meet the Artist events on Saturday 3 September and Saturday 10 September. Hope to see you there!
All work will be available for sale in the gallery and also on my website, as will a catalogue made to accompany the show.
My new body of work for my next solo show is based around preparing for my forthcoming series: ‘Constable’s Walks.’ At one point in his life, Constable lived in Brighton and recorded a series of walks around the city. My full series will follow these walks and capture the landscape, seascape and urban environment of today. For, now, I am excited to show some new work in both oil and watercolour painted en plein air and also back in the studio as I build for my solo show over the coming months. The works are centred around Brighton, stretching along the coast East and West, as well as venturing inland onto the Downs above the city and along the River Adur at Shoreham.
In this large body of work, my primary aim is to capture those moods and moments in the landscape. I will also be bringing in more urban landscapes and suggestions of buildings and towns as this landscape is complex and a mix of nature and urban beauty.
