My trip to Auckland and to the Art of this World opening

The book launch combined with the Valerie Beale opening at Art of this World went well. I sold a limited edition print (Wreck at Owenga) and someone has commissioned a life drawing monoprint. I spoke to Denis Robinson regarding my trip to New York and Dubai and he knew of a Gallery in Dubai for which he will email me the details.

I visited Parnell Gallery, while in Auckland, and they have also just sold one of my prints. This is quite a surprise, as they don't exhibit works on paper due to lack of wall space, but only have them in poster bins. They requested that I send them some cubist paintings which they will hang up! On show were some interesting new works by Otis Frizzell, Mike Weston and an exhibition of impressive, realistic water-based scenes by Deborah Tetlow. There was some interesting work by Anne-Sophie Adelys in Letham Gallery featuring mainly animals and birds. A great little gallery with many separate rooms, Letham holds a range of my limited edition prints. I intend sending them some of my new monoprints.
