Recently I launched an online store selling prints of my paintings. This is largely an experiment as to whether its possible to purchase your own house in West Sussex through internet print sales complete with an art space and gallery good enough for a centre spread in country living! I’ll get back to you on that one! When it was first launched I thought about limited editions but then I thought mmmmm…….. that’s limited! And luckily before I slid on the entrails of cultural greed I came to my senses.It just means that I now have to sell six million prints in order to achieve it! Its great having no 1 of 365 in the whole wide world of anything,but it makes prints ultra expensive and inaccessible. Instead,an open edition of A4 prints have now replaced the larger A3 prints and a smoother, sleeker paper is now being used. The luminosity of the ink will still last 80 years however and because each one has been lovingly scanned from the original panel, each brush mark, detail and bump is crispy clear and quite frankly a bargain!

Armed with a one of those snappy little pencils with an eternal rod of led that you click on demand, I drew these horses in the back of a car.We travelled up to Manchester over the weekend and listened to Lemon Jelly and it all got a bit hypnotic on the way home. Perpetually fascinated by the human relationship with nature, what started of as ‘horse’ became ‘man’. Uninterrupted, undistracted. Jodrell Bank sat like an ugly beautiful thing pointed at the heavens and then the heavens opened up and thundered on the car roof. I went really far away with my pencil and then returned again after completing another drawing of a mermaid come manga character. Motoring sweets at hand, all covered in sweet white dust, it was really quite something. Start new bird panels soon.
