Had the sweet pleasure of being involved in a live art auction at Darren Baker Gallery put on by the Princes Trust celebrating 40 years, featuring works from Sir Peter Blake CBE/RDI/RA, Darren Baker, Eileen Cooper OBE/RA plus more.

We finally have the details of my independently organised solo show to share with you, it’s happening…
The inspiration behind #NoFaceLikePhone stemmed from a moment with a friend well over a year ago during dinner. For some reason, she was on her phone the whole time updating Facebook / Twitter etc to tell everyone where she was, who with and what food she was about to eat…i’m sure you or someone you know can relate…

During the last year, I became an artist in residence in the old Guardian building down Farringdon (previous base for both The Guardian and The Observer papers), where I was able to produce a solid body of work with the intention of having a solo show by the end of my time there…
So finally, after keeping it all hush hush for so long, happy to announce the show title #NoFaceLikePhone and launch date, 20th October, and even more happy to say, it’s all independent or ‘Pindependent’ (like that) with no gallery backing this time around, nothing against that, just wanted to take more control with things so I can give you more of my vision, exactly the way I like.…
