I was taken aback when the artist James Bland asked if I would provide a painting for his forthcoming group show. Not only is James a great painter, but the other invited artists are exceptional too – including Jonathan Chan, Judi Green, Mustafa Özel and more. Come and see their work and look at Proper Stuff at the pv this Wednesday 3rd June at 155a Gallery in London SE22. The show runs til 20 June. My painting is small and above is a detail (ie even smaller) of ‘All That Heaven in Oils’ – inspired in no small part by Douglas Sirk heroines.
James has a new book out and it will be available at the gallery and other fine places.
