Saying ‘goodbye’ to ‘Red Urn’ in a final visit at the end of the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition.

‘One hour was unlit’ was selected for the Bruton Art Society 71st annual summer exhibition.

‘ Kintsugi 10’ was longlisted for the Women in Art prize.

August – The RA Summer Exhibition continues

Painting of a red urn with a grey abstract background.

My painting ‘Red Urn’ was selected  for the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition!

If you are going, you can see ‘Red urn’ in the Large Weston room (keep turning left from the  entrance and look for the wonderful bright blue walls!).

Sold! The excitement of a red dot!

‘Red urn’ sold at the party night a week before the exhibition opened, but can be seen  until the end of the exhibition,  August 18th.

 

With selector and curator Cornelia Parker

It was a thrill to meet Cornelia Parker who selected and curated the work for the Large Weston Room.

AS SEEN ON TV!

The One Show covered the Summer Exhibition from hand-in day to Varnishing day. Don’t blink and you might spot ‘Red Urn’ at the end! Look left!

July news

My studio in the beautiful Chalke Valley was open as part of the Salisbury Art Trail from May 25th to June 9th 2024.

It was a joy to welcome some 90+ visitors during the fortnight of the trail, some of whom had visited before, others visiting for the first time.

If you didn’t make it, mark your diary for the next Art Trail, 23rd May – 7th June 2026!

Or contact me to  visit by appointment.

My main excitement in June was seeing my painting ‘Red Urn’ hung at the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition, attending Varnishing Day, going to a preview with my husband and finding it had already sold!
