help art save lives

12/3/2022

UKRAINE – FUNDRAISING EXHIBITION FOR UKRAINE RELIEF starts today at Zillah Bell Gallery in Thirsk.

100% of the price paid for my painting Little Yellow Bird will be donated to the Disasters Emergency Committee by the gallery.

The exhibition dates are 12th March - 9th April

Here's an opportunity to treat yourself to a beautiful artwork, and also generate a substantial donation to relieve suffering in Ukraine.

‘Thanks to the extreme generosity of our artists we are launching an exhibition across a wide range of styles and media - so there is something to suit every taste and budget. 

100% of the gallery’s proceeds from sales will be donated with an extra percentage from the artists.’ 

I am so proud of John Bell and the team, helping art to save lives.

ngalleries, Helmsley

I am thrilled to have my work on show and for sale in NGalleries in Helmsley. It is super, light and sunny space in Barker’s Yard, which houses some of Yorkshire’s finest art.

Five of my paintings were curated and hung by Louise Dwyer last week, and three of them sold on Friday. 

I am treating myself to a week’s hire of a beach hut in Filey in April from the sales, so that I can paint and create right next to the sea!

It has been lovely to be able to take part in some superb 'in person' creative workshops again this year. A little seasonal one happened a couple of weeks ago at Rural Arts in Thirsk. I collected my ceramic Christmas tree lantern this week, after it had been in the kiln, and I love it.

I am so pleased to see some normality returning and galleries open for in-person visits again, such luxury which we took for granted...

The timing couldn't be more perfect for the start of my summer exhibition 'Summer Eclectic' at the superb Blue Tree Gallery in York.

This summer show features nine new paintings, which I have been working on during lockdown, and some beautiful work created by three very well established Yorkshire artists - Deborah Grice, Colin Cook and Janine Baldwin. 

​For more information about opening times and how to find the gallery please visit

I hope that you have a wonderful visit to the gallery, and enjoy wandering around the streets of this magnificent city, drinking coffee and eating fabulous food.
