One of my window paintings has made it through to the second judging stage for the Royal Academy Summer show. I had a print in the 2025 RA Summer Exhibition but the window paintings are much more respresentative of my work and so I am delighted just to have made it through the first round of judging. 
I am running some plein air painting workshops this summer. Suitable for any level. Beginners and advanced welcome. And if you're thinking of trying oils for the first time then these workshops are ideal for you. I can provide you with a materials list of paints and brushes etc to buy.
May 2nd and 3rd 2026 at Anne Hathaway's Cottage and the brook arts hub. Think thatched cottage and pretty cottage garden...
