Revolve Gallery Showcase at 'GCasino' Manchester

I will be taking part in the above evening organised by Sophia Butler on Thursday 2nd April between 7-9pm with hopefully a few more opportunities arising with this newly opened gallery in the near future. It looks like a very exciting and potentially massive venture for the Manchester contemporary art scene so fingers crossed for success for 'revolve'!!! more info can be found on its fledgling website:

New Paintings

A couple of new pieces Ive been working on.

'The Winter Palace' and 'Drift'

Christmas Presence - Bridewell Gallery

The exhibition is on from 6 -19 Dec with a special opening event being held on Saturday 6th between 11am and 4pm, where there is a Christmas market featuring a wide range of locally produced art, craft and festive goods!!
As well as the exhibition, the bridewells resident artists will have their studios open with food and mulled wine available and music to entertain. Sounds like a good enough reason to get to Liverpool to me!!!!
Remember this gallery has had conections with some of the art and music worlds leading names so you never know you may pick up a bargain??
