Well I did it, with (more than) a little help from my friends! First solo exhibition! Couldn't have got everything there without Ricky giving up his day off and altering his shifts and James struggling on to lift things with his good hand. The exhibition looked magnificent thanks to Joy who has an eye for display and showing things off to their best advantage.The private view was a great success - thanks to Sue and Janie for the canapes and Sharon for the photos (and washing up). Thanks to all the friends that came and Pete for his support and painting the tables. Thank you to Helen for driving to meet the courier at Burtonwood with two pieces for the Society of Women Artists 150th annual exhibition and to Pam whose idea it was and in whose premises it all took place.
The horse box blew off its exhaust 50 yards from Pam's on the way loaded up with plinths and crates of sculpture and its normal throaty roar turned very nasty, but that got fixed in time to take it all back on Monday. Here's a picture of the exhibition - when I get Sharon's photos I will make a power point and put it on the web site. It doesn't really do it justice but you can get the idea.
Sold quite a few pieces and have got a few commissions which is marvellous. |I will try and get them out of the way so I can get on with the 'new' stuff. Here's a picture of a relief I am pleased with.
