I went along to the recent private view of ‘Croydon School Of Art’ at the Museum of Croydon, which celebrates its 150th anniversary as one of Croydon’s key cultural institutions, and came across some pretty looking banners draped across the tables…
My curiosity prompted me to find out more about them, so met Lindsay Ould, the Borough Archivist, who mentioned they were for a London-wide project celebrating 100 years of votes for women, made by community groups, museum visitors, school pupils and Museum of Croydon staff inspired by the borough and its history.…

Wanted to do more talks this year as I feel it’s time to really share some of the experiences i’ve had so far art wise, can feel the growth and positive changes in work and mindset. So just as well the lovely guys at G-Shock London hit me up to take part in a Panel Talk for their G-Shock Sessions happening this Thursday, in the hope of empowering the new generation coming through…
The Panel will consist of several other UK creatives shaping their own futures including Kaylum Dennis (Award Winning Video Director / Content for Stormzy) Che Lingo (Music Artist) Reece Parkinson (BBC Radio 1Xtra), Wavey Ice (Food Company) & Zeze Millz (HeadScarfDiaries)

Time: 7pm
Location: G-Shock store, 56a Carnaby St, London
Enjoyed the Christopher Raeburn ‘IMMERSE’ show at LFW, ‘drawing inspiration from the beauty and fragility of our oceans’. Christopher also collaborated with the V&A Museum recently on their staff uniforms, which aint too bad in-person, pretty stylish actually, noticing upon my many visitations during their Friday Lates…
Thanks to the super lovely Sara for inviting me (*bottom right side taking the pic) 🙂

All works will be for sale, including some canvas and print editions from my end.…
