Leicester Comic Con

Yesterday I was taking part at Leicesters very first comic con! It was a great event, lots of people came and it was great to meet other comic book fans and artists. Thanks to everyone who came to say hello and to the mysterious Stormtrooper who posed with one of my prints :-)

I would also like to send a big thank you to Nathan Leverton for organising and letting me take part and his  army of  yellow shirt volunteers who were a great help throughout the day. #LE1ComicCon #Leicester

Clarendon Park Summer Fair

Hi All, last weekend was my first time exhibiting and selling at the Clarendon Park Summer Fair on Queens Road in Leicester. It was a great day and brilliantly organised. I would just like to say a big thanks to everyone that came, and especially to those that parted with their hard earned cash and bought one of my screen prints, thank you.

Passion 2 Print

Hello all!

Well it’s beginning to get busy in the run up to Christmas and I should have some new prints to show you soon! I’ve also had two of my latest prints selected for the Leicester Passion 2 Print Exhibition! I was very chuffed that they picked both of my entries.

Passion2Print is Leicester Print Workshop’s biennial celebration of contemporary fine art printmaking. Exclusively featuring the work of LPW artists, it is a high-quality showcase for printmaking today. Reflecting its partnership with Embrace Arts and Oundle International Festival, the exhibition will explore ideas around storytelling in music.

The exhibition runs from 8th October 2012 – 7th December 2012 at Embrace Arts, formerly the Richard Attenborough Centre, based on Lancaster Road in Leicester, about 15 mins walk from Leicester Print Workshop, Leicester City Centre and the Railway Station. All details can be found here: http://www.leicesterprintworkshop.com/exhibitions/passion_2_print

The very nice people at cool as leicester.co.uk are currently running an interview of little ‘ol me! I was very honoured to be asked as it’s my first ever interview about my work.

Open for Business: Talent House East Midlands!

The nice people at Talent House East Midlands (THEM for short) a fresh & creative art & design boutique based in St. Martins Square Shopping Centre, in Leicester city centre, now sell some of my screen prints!
(Managing Directors Stephanie and Elizabeth)
‘’THEM’’ provides a platform for emerging artists and designers from throughout the Midlands to showcase and sell their work. As graduates Stephanie and Elizabeth appreciate that it can be very difficult to become established within the art and design industries, and there are little, to no outlets in Leicester that purely provide support for this. Their aim is to help emerging creatives to gain a market within their chosen field.
They also hope to engage with the general public, and offer cutting edge design and affordable contemporary artwork that would not usually be found on a ‘regular’ high street.
