I am having an Art Exhibition at Bradford Cathedral: All welcome. Preview on Friday 21st April at 7-8:30.
Some of the work has been created especially for the Cathedral including strong female icons and the Annunciation for the Lady Chapel.
Also a large triptych , 2 years in the making, called ” The Re-appropriation of St George”, claiming him back from the far right where he has been misappropriated.

The Dragon is connected to Martha and I have used it here to symbolise the distractions of the world and the struggle to remain focused on what is important.

Been working on the flowers which are symbols of Mary. Roses with the thorns like the beginning and the end of her journey. Used very thick magenta crimson and bergundy wity dynamic brushstrokes to create the roses. Really enjoyed creating them as they seemed to flow out of the brush.

Spent the whole day painting Arthur’s Crown in intricate detail. Everywhere I look I see Celtic spirals now.

Been working on Lancelot ‘s eye this morning. Leaving it for a bit and starting a celtic cross. Will return to it tomorrow with fresh eyes.

I am working on 4 paintings simultaneously which makes for interesting method
