We made a good start. I've sold a painting before we hung but the buyer is letting me keep the painting for the duration of the exhibition. Merice sold a print as she was unwrapping the bubble wrap.....and then I got a parking ticket. Ah well - that's life! Here's a look at how the day unfolded:
At last 'Double Vision' is officially open. It starts from today 27th October and runs through until 27th November 2014. You can find us in the Gallery @ the Spa situated just inside the main entrance of Bridlington Spa. It was a busy day yesterday hanging the show and I couldn't have done it without all the help I received so a big thank you to everybody especially Ozzy, Mark and Stan. We made a good start. I've sold a painting before we hung but the buyer is letting me keep the painting for the duration of the exhibition. Merice sold a print as she was unwrapping the bubble wrap.....and then I got a parking ticket. Ah well - that's life! Here's a look at how the day unfolded: We started with a house full of paintings and then into the car.... Down to the Gallery @ the Spa. When we first entered this large empty space it was a bit daunting to say the least but once we got everything laid out excitement and confidence grew. With a little (actually with a lot - they did most of the work!) help from my friends everything was finally shipshape and Bristol fashion. One last thing to do: Yes it was finally time to decamp for Mr Yips and his most excellent cuisine for a well earned meal and a drop of libation. So there you have it. After two years 'Double Vision' is finally on show. Both Merice and yours truly are very pleased with how it looks so once again a very grateful thanks to everybody who helped us out yesterday. "Winter Walk on Wykeham Road" is featured in the exhibition. I wanted to paint a snow picture without using any white (as you do!) and is a companion piece to "Wild Roses on the Wolds" which is the same location in a different season. The whole point of the exhibition is to make art joyful and accessible so we would like to extend a very sincere invitation to everybody to come and see us. We will be there every Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday from about 12.30 so please call if you can. If you can't make it in person here's a link to view the show online. I hope you enjoy. Glenn
