'RIOTING FOR SNEAKERS' WILL BE ON VIEW AT THIS WEEK'S FRIDAY NIGHT SHOW!

It's been delayed in its trip abroad, so my acrylic painting depicting a 'Futurist Interpretation' of a massive punch-up in a sportshop, will be on show on DIGBETH FIRST FRIDAY. For details of the event, see below this post!

FOR THE DIARY: OUR POP-UP ART SHOW AT BIRMINGHAM'S CUSTARD FACTORY EVERY FIRST FRIDAY TIL OCT.

I'm based at THE CUSTARD FACTORY, and on Friday May 2nd, the artist Zarina Keyani and I will be showcasing our art collective THE COBALT BLUE, alongside our eclectic Custard Factory art colleagues, such as famed designer and printmaker Emma Hardicker and the renowned BP-nominated portrait artist Stephen Earl Rogers, among others.

Across the entire Digbeth area of Birmingham on every FIRST FRIDAY of the month, all the different art groups will be exhibiting. We need you to come along, enjoy the area, and most importantly, enjoy the art!

Ours will be next to the poolside gallery, at the back of the quad ( walk through the passage between the design shop & reception, then left around the pool ). 

There will be food stalls and our friends at McTunneys sweetshop and the uber-cool vinyl store MILQUE AND MUHLE will be staying open late, too!

Our studio complex is surrounded by some of the best street art you will ever see, and we also have Birmingham's Oldest Pub next door. Once a month, every First Friday until 3rd October.


CONSIDER THIS AN INVITATION! ;)
