19 Feb 2011 The Drang Gallery
The new Drang Gallery looks like a smashing new gallery in Padstow Cornwall. Just round the corner to Rick Steins super fish restaurant as well! AND...they have one of my original paintings in the left hand window. How good is that!!??

5 Feb 2011 New Facebook Artist's Open House fan page !!!!
I have been working on a new Facebook fan page [ note: also called a 'like' page or 'business' page].
The idea is to create somewhere on the internet for visitors to [and fans of] our Artists Open House events. Facebook allows comments and shares photos and videos.
This is separate to my other Facebook pages because this is for people who 'like' Artists Open Houses, and want news and gossip and pictures about just that.
Believe me there are many many thousands of regular folk who throng around Brighton in May and December during the OH seasons.
They love the intimate, free, and stimulating experience. So do I.
Here is the link, why not go and have a look?

12 Jan 2011 Lapiz Lazuli
Here is the third of my 5 part arty-farty quiz, first shown on my Facebook fan page last weekend.
This is just for fun.
Question; What is or was the very expensive colour obtained by grinding up lapiz lazuli, and what replaced in the early 19th century?
Answer; Ultramarine and French ultramarine.
This quiz was probably better presented using the original FB design where I have written four answers to each question and you had to choose the correct one. The trouble was that the FB app was unpopular because it requires users to allow access to all personal details. I wonder why? Answers on a postcard please, or, my comments box below. Thanks :-)

11 Jan 2011 A special date!
Today is one of those 'interesting' dates. One-one, one, one-one. Or 11/1/11.
Also it is day two of the arty-farty quiz Q&A.
[Recall that I presented a Facebook quiz using a FB app on my fan page.]
It was not popular!
Hey ho. You win some and you lose some.
But I have already written the art related Q's and Answers.
So here is the second one for your amusement.
Q What nationality was Beek who illustrated the Enid Blyton Noddy books?
A. Dutch, real name Eelco Martinus ten Harmsen van der Beek (1897-1953)
My Facebook fan [business] page is not the same as my Facebook profile [social] page.
I wonder how many blog followers are following Facebook as well. Hmmm?
