I added lots of lovely new items to my shop this week: greeting cards, keyrings, magnets and coasters each featuring my artworks 'Cormorants and Herring Gulls', 'Ong Bak', 'Hello Pluto!' and 'Sadie in the Sky'. I've done two greeting card variations of 'Sadie in the Sky' as I couldn't decide where to crop it since the original painting is so wide. I like them both so we shall see which version everyone else likes.

The Drawing Board in Wrexham - a community run gallery - celebrated it's 2nd birthday today and opened it's latest exhibition (with plenty of cake which is the best way to open anything!). 

I have two paintings for sale in the new exhibition - 'Hello!' and 'Weather Coming In'. It's the first time I've put in large pieces so we'll see how they do. Since I started exhibiting at The Drawing Board I think I've sold four pieces but they have all been small illustrations, so I'm excited to see if anyone is willing to pay a bit more for my paintings.

I met a few of the other exhibiting artists there today and a few of them said 'Weather Coming In' was one of their favourite pieces which was so nice to hear! 'Hello!' got a much more muted response which was a shame but I still love it and I'm sure someone else will to!
