Opening today from 1.0 p.m -3.0 p.m

Everyone Welcome

After all the hard work of painting and putting the collection together for my " Watercolours With Life" Exhibition at theWey Gallery in Godalming,Surrey the day had finally arrived for the opening.

The gallery have been a delight to work with due to their professional attitude. Months previously the collection was discussed follwing the initial invitation from last year for me to show in 2011. Planning ahead in detail down to invitations,subjects to be in the exhibition and promotion for the event has been an ongoing and enjoyable process.

I visited the gallery on Friday of this week just to check everything was in place so that there wouldn't be any last minute glitches and there were none. Together as an artist I have worked with the gallery so that today will be one to enjoy and I cannot wait for the moment when I walk through the doors for the opening.

I would highly recommend a visit to the Wey Gallery. They showcase a wonderful variety of art and are located in the heart of Godalming, a really quaint town in Surrey , UK.

"As an independent gallery we strive to offer an exciting mix of Paintings, Original limited edition prints, Sculpture and Ceramics by new up and coming talent along with modern masters, including Craigie Aitchison CBE, RA, Sir Peter Blake RA, Sir Terry Frost and John Hoyland RA."

If you are there this afternoon from one to three I look forward to meeting you. All the art in my show will be online to view from the opening of the preview.

The Artist Magazine : Book Review

Jean Haines' Atmospheric Watercolours

"The book is nothing less than a paean to the wet in wet technique. If that's your thing, prepare to be amazed. Jean Haines credits Jean Louis Morelle, and in many ways this book is the sequel to Morelle's remarkable, but very technical work, showing the wealth of creative possibilities the technique offers. A lot of the images are barely recognisable and yet you instinctively know what they are. I wish I knew how, because this is impressionism taken to its logical conclusion and reminiscent of some of the later work by JMW Turner. You will have to take it from me that "First signs of a face appearing magically from a first wash of watercolour" is pure alchemy. This is an extraordinary book."

"Amazing Ways With Watercolour:" Fastest Selling DVD!

"Amazing Ways With Watercolour" from Town House Films is the fastest selling DVD with the company to date! Record breaking pre-orders for this much awaited film saw requests for copies flooding in from all over the world. A wonderful introduction into working with watercolour minus the use of a preliminary sketch this DVD removes the fear, stress or pressure from worry about how to use watercolour. Instead the focus is on having fun, enjoying vibrant colour combinations and allowing the medium to create the subjects with just a little help from the artist. A really exciting new DVD to own. Whilst the DVD sold out in the first few months since its' release due to popularity it is now in stock and available directly from Town House Films.
