Priley Riley, Mixed news, June 2016






I have mixed news!

I was unsuccessful in the Sunday Times Watercolour competition- ah well, it was worth a shot :)

The Child Sculpture is now back on display in Loughborough! This time it is inside, rather than outside, Carillon Court Shopping Centre. It should be safer here as the shopping centre gets locked up at night. It went back on display around mid June 2016.

On the 18th of June I went to meet the gentleman who commissioned me with his finished painting, depicting his English Bull Terrier. The gentleman and his wife were both very pleased with the outcome and its likeness to their pet :D Photos attached to show the painting's development.

I will be exhibiting one of my recent watercolour paintings at Derby museum and Art Gallery between the 9th of July and 25th of September 2016! This will form part of their 'Everyone- Your Place in the World' exhibition. Derby Museum and Art Gallery is home to the world's largest public gallery of paintings by Joseph Wright, a highly celebrated 18th century artist from Derby, so it is an honour to exhibit here!

Finally, a reminder of another upcoming exhibition at the Old Truman Brewery in London. Private view on the 7th July, open to the public 8th to 11th July 2016. I will be exhibiting recent hand casts at this exhibition :)
