Exhibition News & New Works

I haven't had a chance to write for a while due to preparing for a few exhibitions this month. I've been doing a little drawing in between labeling and packing & trips to the framers. Here is a little round up for you of what's new

Starlight & Moonlight
As promised I drew 2 more pieces in this mini series, they are now at The Milton Gallery, Crathes for their new exhibition "The Dancing Light" during September & October

  "Starlight"

"Moonlight" 

One of my main exhibitions of the year is now on at Aberdeen Waldorf School for NEOS 2013 (North East Open Studios). The venue is exhibiting over 30 local artists and makers this week and is always well worth a visit if you are in the area. Dates are 14th-22nd September- 10am- 5pm Daily. Fresh off the drawing board today is a small Goldcrest which will be flying off to join the show on Wednesday.

"All That Glitters"

Opening this week also are two international shows- The very first Bad Apples Artist Collective exhibition opened on the 14th at Sonelab Studios, Massachusetts to coincide with the release of Issue 7 of "Meat for Tea- Bone". Sending a big thank you to our curator HeatherRose and Meat for Tea creator & editor Elizabeth McDuffie. The 2 pieces I have in the show were featured on both the poster and the cover of the mag (my first ever cover feature, so exciting !!). Sales inquiries can be made to- Contact@HeatherRoseStudios.com. 

L'innamorato starts on the 20th September at the Potterswife Gallery, Indiana. We have had months of sneak peeps, artists interviews and shared inspirations, so I cannot wait to see the show revealed with such an exciting line-up selected by Dan Hudson & Aunia Kahn, very happy to be part of this. Do check out the website for the big launch this Friday.


The main new piece I have been working on lately is for the second Bad Apples "Live" Show "Alice in Wonderland" in October. She has been a little while in the making but I'm finally finished. It is an honour to be hosting this show in Aberdeen, Scotland and I will be sure to share with you when it opens on the 5th of October. If you are in the area please come along to St Peters Heritage Hall, Peterculter, Aberdeen, We will be open to the public every weekend in October Sat & Sun 2pm-4pm and by appointment viewings, just email me on ainver@f2s.com if you would like to arrange this (appointments continue until January 2014). 
I have revisited the theme of Wonderland many times over the years. It was so much fun to take a trip down the rabbit hole again. This time I have gone for a very soft and romantic vision of Alice. Now I have ideas to tackle The Caterpillar & White Rabbit in this style, so stay tuned. 
Here is my first new Alice piece-
