I've had a very busy few weeks but I've finally found some time to recap it all on my blog!
New Flower Paintings
So, first of all, I have my new collection of flower paintings that I'm working on. As with the trees, I'm working on them obsessively right now so expect of variations to come! You can see one of them pictured below. You can also look through the available pieces in my
Etsy store.
Art on the Street Award Final
This week I was pleased to be a finalist in Maidenhead's Art on the Street awards. The award was open to everyone who took part in
Art on the Street in 2011. In the end the award went to very deserving winners,
Slough Arts Society so congratulations to them! It was lovely to be considered as a finalist though - very unexpected to be honest.
Dorothy and Theodore
You can now buy my paintings from Dorothy & Theodore. There are also a selection of prints available for sale & more prints to follow.
Prints
I will be adding to my range of prints available through my
Etsy store and you can now also buy larger prints on canvas and also fine art paper via
Saatchi Online.
EBSQ Registration
I am now an EBSQ registered artist. What this means to you is that all my work is registered and each painting will now come with a Certificate of Authenticity and unique reference number so you can claim it as your own.
Custom Works
I've had a busy couple of months creating custom paintings which is great. I love the challenge of colour-matching paintings to people's home colour schemes and have had some lovely feedback from people.
Reading Half Marathon
I completed Reading Half Marathon which you may remember I signed up to as part of the
Running for Harry team. We've jointly raised over £5600 so far. I'm doing Torbay Half Marathon in June which I hope will be a bit easier due to more training & more weight loss. I'll keep you posted!
I think that's it for now, thanks for reading! Catch up soon!

I've been ever so busy over the last week! I began work on a new collection of abstract flower paintings and I'm really pleased with the results so far. I created them using heavy-bodied acrylic paints, and Liquitex pouring medium & string gel.
