Haven’t been able (or bothered) to paint for a while but did this the other day. It started out as just a drawing. Adding colour was an afterthought.

Protected: Dead: Paintings of singers and musicians who died tragically young. New exhibition in Hastings.
‘Dead’: Exhibition of Paintings, Hastings Arts Forum, 11-24 June 2019
On 11 June I will be having my very first exhibition of paintings. Entitled ‘Dead’, the theme of the work is singers or musicians who have all died tragically young. All of the work has been painted in watercolour over a three-month period.
There will be an opening night even at 6:00 pm Friday on 14 June at the Hastings Arts Forum. Being quite nervous about something I’ve never done before I’d appreciate as much moral support as possible.
It would be really good if you could Tweet this page or put it up on other forms of social media, FaceBook, Instagram, etc. I need as much support as I can get.
Below are a few examples of my work.

Proving, yet again, that I have zero life, here are my latest daubings in watercolour.
I’m not entirely sure why I’m posting but I sort of enjoy the occasional ‘like’. Would be even nicer if the ‘likes’ were accompanied by some form of monetary compensation
here goes:

Haven’t posted in a while – been getting back to the writing. In the evenings I’ve been painting.
For what it’s worth, here they are:

Got a little distracted by the election and didn’t paint anything at all. Finally got back into it on Friday night. This took 6 ½ hours from start to finish. It’s Harry, my former clarinet teacher.
Meanwhile, here’s a piece I wrote on the same day for the British Boxers website. It’s about the upcoming Mayweather-McGregor fiasco.
