Who watched by BBC Studios 🙋🏻‍♂️

These big cats are absolutely incredible and it was great to see moment never caught before on camera 😍

They are always my favourite animal to paint and this huge statement piece is now at the framers getting ready to go on show Lamport Hall this September for Northants & Rutland Open Studios central exhibition!

You’ll recognise the ‘look’ if you watched the show… this one is definitely a female in protection mode! I can’t wait for you all to see what 100 hours of painting this beautiful cat looks like in full…

Kettfest is in full swing and looks amazing! 😍

Here's my owl poster up for the outside exhibition by 🖤 Love Kettering 🇬🇧 & Alfred East Gallery just down from McDonald's...

It was also so lovely to meet Dan Dwight whose work is next to mine and see 909 Art DaZe MaDe & Sally Leach from Kettering Street Art! We did have a doodle on the tables...

Delighted to hear I was one of the 25 selected this morning by the Alfred East Gallery for Love Kettering’s ‘Outdoor Poster Exhibition’ starting today! 🥳

The outdoor gallery is now installed for Kettfest - you can find mine alongside all the other amazing local artists on Meadow Road, just down the hill from McDonalds in the town centre.

Thanks guys, can’t wait to go and have a look!
