Can hardly believe that I have been selected to show my portrait of Rita at this years Royal Society of Portrait Painters annual exhibition.  Will show along with some of the big boys and girls in the portrait world.  So, so happy, I feel a little sick.  Will post more details when I recover.  This years exhibition will be on display at the Mall Galleries near Trafaglar square between the 9th and 24th of May 2013. 

So ...again was very excited to deliver my newly finished painting titled 'Winter' to the National Portrait Gallery's annual open exhibition.  With a large bubble wrapped package (and a google map) under my arm I finally arrived to the airport hanger size of a warehouse in Bermondsey to drop off the work for judging.  Had a sneeky peek behind the reception area to the vast space beyond and saw what was thousands of portraits lined up, in groups of about 10 per stack.  Quickly realized the scale of this prestigious event...wow.
