Cubby Hole Exhibition

Well I've been very busy, as usual. Last night was the set up and opening of my solo exhibition, my second. It went brilliantly and I've had two sales so far.

The morning was spent setting up. The venue was two rooms with a big gap in the partition wall, sort of a figure of eight shape. I planned the layout beforehand and it didn't take too much work to fit everything in. Some of the pictures were raised quite high and the effect worked quite well I think.

Here's the jump from empty to finished.

Note the purple mouse on the radiator; the exhibition mascot!

The preview evening was brilliant and I must say lots of thanks to Carol and co. for all of the help in putting it on and publicising it. Lots of people turned up and I had a nice time chatting to the guests and met some really interesting people. The comments pages were filled up by the end of the night.

The lady in green above is Julie and her new art stall in Dagfields was set up yesterday too. After setting up The Cubby Hole we had time to pop round and say hello. The four paintings on the left below are hers.

Today I've been working on the music of Pi. Tomorrow I'm off to Birmingham to drop off some work for the R.B.S.A. Spring Open. Then, it's Pi again!
