A few months ago I was asked by some friends if I would like to exhibit my paintings in the new cafe they were opening in the village we live in. Yesterday I delivered the paintings and helped to arrange and hang them and the cafe opens today. I took some quick photos yesterday of the paintings (click on the thumbnails for larger views). I’m hoping to get some better photos in the next couple of days.
I have five paintings on display, all acrylic on canvas. You can see better images of the paintings below (again, click the thumbnails for larger views):
The cafe is called Rosie’s Tea and Coffee Rooms and is located on Kinder Road in Hayfield, Derbyshire (Google Maps link). The paintings will be on display for around a month and are all for sale. It’s quite exciting as it’s actually the first time I’ve ever displayed my work in public “in the flesh”. So, if you’re in the area and want to see these pieces do pop into Rosie’s for coffee and cake!

THEY ARE HANGING SO HIGH! ANY SPECIFIC REASON?
I LOVE YR PAINTINGS THOUGH!
It looks like they’re high but that’s because the ceilings are actually low (like most of the buildings round here, 200+ years old and ceilings weren’t made high in most places then!). It’s also because people are sitting close to the walls as well, so they needed to be higher so people weren’t sitting against them or knocking their heads on them.
The photos make it look much more exaggerated than it is if you’re there in person though.
Hey Moopf!
I see you have been busy. Lots of new stuff. Exhibition, new web and that Concentric piece looks awsome. I got a few new project that i hopefully will launch in Januari 2010.
Hey Henrik, how are you keeping? It’s been a while since we last spoke, have you been painting much recently? Which reminds me, gotta add your site to my links
