Thanks for friends add captain.
A chap who does fine woodwork and furniture work at Green Park Station recommended that I check out your artwork. Also I meet be meeting up with Harry when I get back to the UK in November. I have been working hard to make abstract and minimal work available to Bath audience for affordable prices - also take out the pretention of local art scene - some successes.
I would love to see a show in the UK - will you do any more in UK or is systems go in France from this point forward?
My best regards from Luke Gilliam

I like the emotional intensity of your work. The first few pics remind me of Kaethe Kollwitz. others remind me of Francis Bacon (#11, for example). I like your use of line throughout as well as the pathos you evoke. Lovely, powerful work.

Hi there, your work looks extremely interesting. Are you from Bath?
I've got a horrible feeling that 'philanthropy' is likely to become the word of the week regarding the arts and government funding. For the next 200 weeks...
