Attic Stories.

I will be having an exhibition of ten selected works at Kelly Ross's Child Okeford gallery The Art Stable in the lovely Dorset village of Child Okeford.

Having lived and worked in Child Okeford for over 30 years, I am particularly delighted to be having this exhibition at The Art Stable, https://www.theartstable.co.uk/ having known Kelly since she opened the gallery in 2006.

My exhibition at Waterhouse and Dodd's Savile Row gallery is now open. Despite the prevailing difficulties, gallery director Jamie Anderson will be in attendance at all times and welcomes visitors to view the works by appointment.

Waterhouse & Dodd will be holding an exhibition of my recent work at their Savile Row space from 20th October - 13th November 2020. In light of the current Covid-19 situation this will be primarily an on-line exhibition, but for those who are willing to risk it, the actual paintings will be available for viewing at 16 Savile Row, London W1S 3PL by appointment.

Waterhouse and Dodd will be showing a new still life, Copper Basket with Fruit at the London Art Fair, Islington. They will be exhibiting works by Frank Auerbach, Henry Moore and Ben Johnson, alongside represented contemporary artists Martyn Brewster, and Clive Head.

This year I shall be exhibiting Portrait of the Photographer with Seated Girl at the Royal Society of Portrait Painters annual exhibition at the Mall Galleries.

Portrait photographer Alistair Morrison approached me last year with a proposal to collaborate on a Sit for me sitting for you project to be entitled Portrait of the Artist through the Artist's eyes.

Waterhouse and Dodd will be showing Still Life with Orchid for the first time at the 2019 London Art Fair.

Figure with Box is currently on display at the Royal Society of Portrait Painters annual exhibition at the Mall Galleries, London, where it was awarded the Smallwood Architects Prize for 'contextual portraiture'.

Waterhouse and Dodd will be presenting five new works at the gallery in February 2015. The rear of the gallery will feature a selection of work curated by Michael from gallery stock, including further oil paintings and works on paper by the artist.

The National Portrait Gallery's drawing, Self Portrait (in memory of my father), is to be shown as part of an exhibition devoted to self portraiture at Turner Contemporary, Margate. Opening on 25th January, and organized jointly with the NPG, 'Self: Image and Identity: Self-portraiture from Van Dyck to Louise Bourgeois' is being staged to showcase their newly acquired Van Dyck self portrait.
