Great night out at the reception for the new director of the National Portrait Gallery Nicholas Cullinan. Everyone seemed to agree that he seems like a nice guy. Afterwards cocktails a plenty at the Groucho Club with Jonathon Yeo, Ben Ashton and Edward Sutcliffe. The most fab night in awhile!  Nicholas Cullinan giving his speech.  The attentive gathering, with Andrew Tift, Ben Ashton and Edward Sutcliffe (this years BP Travel Award winner - looking forward to seeing his works soon.)

See you there! http://www.darrenbakergallery.co.uk Had a very interesting development this week and I shall post more details very soon. The Darren Baker Gallery in Londons swishy Charlotte Street are teaming up with Isis Phoenix Arts for an interesting new show.  Yes, the colour chef himself Michael Harding stopped by the Cass Art flagship store in Islington to share and muse about what goes into producing his handmade artists oil colours. I found his knowledge and passion for what he does impressive and his enthusiasm infectious. Some great new colours to boot. You may wish to stay tuned for some exciting news coming soon...  Colour guru Michael Harding in action.  One of the new colours Amethyst was a personal favourite as well as the subtle but rich Italian Green Umber.  The crowd trying out/grabbing the new colours on offer. Thanks to all at Isis Phoenix Arts for allowing me to show three new works with your amazing artists Charlie Moxon, Bartholowmew Beal and Eleanor Watson. The exhibit is now on at the very new and groovy members club Library in the heart of Londons West End.

Plenty to read at Library.  Art lovers enjoying the evening and the very tasty Berkeley Square G & T's.
