The Time is Coming
Hello all - things have been very quiet here - and there is a very good reason. At the moment I am in the middle of building a brand new website. My blog served its purpose when I first started but I have moved on and I need a better way to represent myself. I am hoping that the new site will be up and running within the next 3 weeks - but the spirit of this blog will live on.
I am also preparing for a solo exhibition in a new gallery in Plymouth in mid May
In the meantime many of you may not be aware that I have a facebook page - purely for my artwork
The link is here - please come and like ... MY DOG ATE ART facebook page.
I am also taking a greater interest in photography and I have a dedicated MY DOG ATE ART flickr page
And - for those of you who are not aware I am also involved with an online creative arts platform
It's called tribe and the website is here - TRIBE
Finally - when the new website is active I will be posting details here - and be sure my dog will keep on eating.

ACEOs
This is by way of a quick catch up and a belated happy 2012 to all of you. For 3 months up until December I was working on the British Art Show 7 in Plymouth - part of a team looking after the artworks and explaining and discussing with visitors to one of the biggest contemporary art shows in Europe.
As a result I've not created a massive amount of work since mid September 2011.
But I have been experimenting with ACEOs - here's a couple of examples -
In short - as miniature artworks - they are incredibly good value for original artworks.
In the UK they are £ 9.30 each (inc postage). Anywhere else just ask and I'll quote on the current exchange rate and postage.
( as a rough guide however - in the US each would be approx $ 15.50 and in Europe 11.40 Euros ... inclusive of postage )
I sold 4 immediately they were posted - which also resulted in me getting a commission for a full size painting so get in quick ! Just email me : mydogateart@gmail.com no obligation.
I am also back at the bigger canvases again. More soon.

MORE NEW WORK TO COME SOON
Regular visitors to this site may be wondering where has all the new work gone ...
Well I've had a holiday and I am now working on some new paitings for my first solo show here in Plymouth next month - more detail and the paintings here later.
However - in the meantime "Argyle Man" has now been placed on the back of the big-screen in Plymouth city-centre - the pictures below are of him and me etc.
I am very pleased indeed as you can imagine- he'll be there until at least the end of October.
In the meantime - remember I'm open for business - so if you are interested in purchasing existing or commissioning new work just email me

ARGYLE MAN : COMING SOON TO A BIG SCREEN NEAR YOU !!!
ARGYLE MAN
This painting is already on this blog - but the good news is that having submitted this image for the Big Blueprint - this has been commissioned as the next large scale banner (27' x 14') on the back of the big-screen in Plymouth city-centre ( one of only three such commissions)
Needless to say I am absolutely delighted at the outcome and cannot wait to see this looming over the crowds on Royal Parade.
I am also delighted to be following Beryl Cook and Sir Joshua Reynolds - I still can't believe it - and really hope that I can turn this into a major turning-point in my very new career path.
Thanks for all the good wishes and positive vibes when I knew I had been shortlisted.

UK price (inc p&p) £ 160.00 GBP

I may on occasion seem obsessed with men in suits - but that's maybe because I spent an awful long time being one - maybe this is my way of getting it out of my system. Loosely set on Gwenver Beach in the far west of Cornwall near Sennen Cove ( a top surfing spot ) - hence the spiky bleached blond hair... there's also the ritual mask vibe going on here as well.

This painting is a miniature - working on the basis of "waste not want not" I've used another mass produced high street print - removed the picture and used the board to paint on . I then replace the painting in the original frame. The painting is textured with a high gloss varnish finish and comes complete in its own broad moulded frame which is gold in colour at present - but can be resprayed black,white or any other colour come to that....

These two paintings are based on ancient gods of fire and lightning from Slavic and Baltic mythology.
They come individually or as a pair. These paintings are also part of my recycled art series - using the board and frame (gold in this case) from a mass-produced print for original art-work. The frame can be sprayed black, white ... or any other colour (come to that) if you'd like.
