First Exhibition in 32 Years

I was invited to exhibit my paintings by Andy Hartwell of The Hartwell Blind Company Limited at their beautiful showroom at 79 Northgate Street in Bury St Edmunds.  There was a private viewing for invited guests on Friday 21st October in the evening with wine sponsored by Shami Gill of Wattisfield Wines, Walsham le Willows.  The paintings were warmly received, which was very encouraging and my most recent portrait commission was shown with the subject in attendance so that everyone could appreciate the likeness. 

The following day the Bury Free Press sent along a reporter and photographer and a very complimentary and detailed report with photograph appeared in the next edition of the newspaper.  The exhibition was very successful and resulted in a lots of interest, purchases and two commissions.
