My next Exhibition......EmergingRealities. Featuring the work of six emerging London-based artists - collaborative artists Jonny Love and Samuel Jordan; Mat Kemp; Jayson Lilley; Anna Masters; and Liina Small - Emerging Realities showcases exciting new works with an original perspective on the modern human experience. About the artists: LoveJordan LoveJordan art is the collaborative work of Jonny Love and Samuel Jordan. With a practice that encompasses painting, drawing, collage, sculpture and photography, their work displays a shear joy in creation: of identifying beauty in detail, in challenging preconceptions of materials and forms, and playfully distorting our world-views. http://www.LoveJordan.net Mat Kemp Mat Kemp is an artist whose varied practice utilises found objects, industrial materials and more traditional mediums such cast bronze, plaster and resin. Utilising an extensive materials bank of found objects, old toys and donations from friends and colleagues, Mat produces humourous sculptural pieces that reinterpret familiar subjects and materials. www.matkemp.com Jayson Lilley Drawing from his background in design and advertising, Jayson Lilley has developed a graphic signature style utilising strong compositional form and a bold palette. Inspired by London's architectural landscape, he uses a strong light source to create contrasting shadows which define the form of buildings. Reducing his subject matter to an image which conveys form, light and silhouette, Jayson creates iconic images of some of London's most recognisable sites. www.jaysonlilley.com Anna Masters Anna Masters creates stunningly intricate paintings featuring butterflies, insects and birds with a quirky twist, using the subjects to create playful juxtapositions between nature and modern human experience. Integrating her love of pattern and design into striking contemporary compositions, her paintings employ such a degree of detail and study that they become almost impossibly still, removing them from the natural order of life and the movement of time. www.annamasters.com Liina Small Estonian-born painter, Liina Small loves simple forms and ideas. Her paintings depict life and activity, and are constructed in many layers of oil with a hint of charcoal and pencil. Working from sketches and photography, she creates a believable impression of the subject that portrays emotion, presence and vitality. www.liinasmall.com 26th of February - 3rd March 11am-6pm PRIVATE VIEW - Wednesday 27th February 6-8pm Emerging Realities Craft Central 33-35 st.

Truman Brewery

Had a productive Saturday in the studio. After the fantastic response to the painting I completed of the Truman Brewery (which you can see at the upcoming http://affordableartfair.com/battersea/) I decided to produce some brand new screen prints of it. I really love this chimney as it towers over the cool trend seekers of Brick Lane in East London. If you would like to be the first to see the new Truman Brewery screen prints they will be on sale at www.startspace.co.uk in Columbia Road as of this Sunday Morning and maybe pick up some flowers on the way;-)

OXO Tower

Just had a great morning screen printing one of my favourite buildings in London. The Oxo Tower on the South Bank of the Thames. Originally a power station but converted in the 1920s when it was acquired by the Liebig Extract of Meat Company, manufacturers of OXO beef stock cubes. Nowadays it is dual purpose work/live Units with a fantastic restaurant on the top floor http://www.harveynichols.com/oxo-tower-london ..... which i think serves the Best Plymouth gin martini you could ever have;-)

You can Purchase my screen prints at the upcoming Affordable Art Fair Battersea 25-28 October 2012 Smithson Gallery Stand J7.
