When Mo Gawdat met Shazia Mahmood … It was enlightening and energising listening to Mo and others on the topics of creativity and happiness. I also got the chance to talk about my own personal mission around the importance of flow in creativity and how this can help our mental health.

April Newsletter: Chichester Art Trail
Chichester Art Trail 2022. Over two weekends: 30 April - 2 May and 7- 8 May. I'm venue 57 on the Peninsular Trail
I am so excited to be opening my studio doors to you all once again! The Studio has had a spruce up — although I don't think the acrylic paint is ever coming out of the floorboards!
I have also been very busy getting together a new selection of paintings of West Wittering, Bracklesham, views to the Isle of Wight and my beloved Scotland specifically for the trail, but you'll also be able to see some past works too.
There will be large and small pieces, framed and unframed, in fact, there will be A LOT of paintings to view — perfect for all homes and budgets.
You don't need to be an art collector or connoisseur to enjoy the trail, some of the best conversations I've had have been with people who just love the atmosphere and experience of the wide variety of artists and venues.

Read MoreMarch Newsletter: Spring in the air, a spring in my art
I have been doing a number of updates on my website with new paintings; a new art partnership with the Crab and Lobster in Sidlesham; and a new page that talks about all things Creativity and Happiness. (I'll add to this over the coming months too).
As always, if there is anything that takes your fancy or you would like to see in the flesh, please get in touch as studio visits are very welcome and also I can send more detailed images of work you might like. Email me directly.
The new work has I hope pushed the boundaries of what paint and place can achieve. I am very obsessed with capturing that one moment and the paint expressing that particular second and experience in the land. Some are a little more abstract and different but I hope still give you, the viewer, a deeper connection with the location - whether your heart belongs to England or Scotland!

Crab and Lobster partnership: view my work while you drink and dine
Four new pieces of my work are now adorning the walls in the spectacular Crab & Lobster in Sidlesham, West Sussex.
What a lovely dedicated team of people that make this place so gorgeous. it’s been a dream of mine to find a West Sussex coastal location to hang my work and make it available for purchase. A win:win for me and the Crab and Lobster.
Pop in if you get the chance -they've recently had a refurbishment and it looks beautiful! And the beer is outstanding!
