 "Arteon"; a stag print. I'm often asked what is the difference between a print and an original.
Sometimes the quality of a print is so good, it looks like an original. What do artists even mean by an original? So this blog is here to help. Don't let the terms artists and galleries use put you off buying something you love. Here's my guide to help you understand exactly what you're buying.

I started my own art business in September 2014 after a 20 year career in teaching! I knew how to paint but I had no idea how I was going to be able to turn my passion into my full-time job and my full-time living. Now seven years on I'm happy to say I'm a successful artist and loving my life.

Just before we had to close up the exhibition due to the Corona virus, I managed to create a video for you. So if you'd planned to come but couldn't. This just is for you. Watch with the sound on, as I talk you through it. All of the originals that have not yet been sold are still available from Fishterton Mill. You can buy "browser prints" from me.  We are living in extraordinary time and I know that as well as genuine fear of what is happening surrounding the Coronavirus, we also have anxiety about how to mentally cope if we are at home for long periods of time. What are the kids going to do? Hang on, what am I going to do?
How do I stay calm? With my apologies to Toto for tweaking their lyrics but I couldn't resist! My solo show at Fisherton Mill has begun and I can't wait to share it with you  |
