Events
Arkane exhibits at between 6 – 10 shows and exhibitions throughout the year and has a permanent display at the Cotswold Craftsmen Gallery in Market Street, Nailsworth, GL6 0BX. Work can also be viewed by appointment at my workshop in Chalford, GL6 8NR. Be lovely to see you at any of these shows so do make yourself known if you venture along 
The gallery is manned on a rota system by members of the Cotswold Craftsmen so do let me know if you would like to know which days I am doing my stint!
Events for 2019

Another Beastly Art Exhibition – Nature In Art
March 5th – 17th, Nature In Art, Twigworth, Gloucester
Jane Vernon, Nat Morley and myself have been exhibiting together under the ‘Beastly’ banner for many years! As the name suggests, it is inspired by our combined love of animals and nature and for anyone that shares this fascination,it’s a ‘must see’ exhibition.
Newbury Flower Show, Newbury Showground
April 13th – 14th, Newbury Showground, Thatcham, Berks, RG18 9QZ
New venue for 2019! Checking out venues a little further afield. Will be exhibiting alongside other members of the Cotswold Craftsmen, Hereford Guild and Worcester Guild so there will be plenty of high quality and unique work to browse around – and hopefully feel inclined to buy! We will be inside the main building, right next to the restaurant/cafe. What could be better!

Blenheim Flower Show
June 21st/22nd/23rd – Blenheim Flower Show, Blenheim Palace, Woodstock, Oxon
Back at Blenheim for the third year. It’s a lovely show. Always feels vibrant with plenty to see and do but also relaxed. I will be exhibiting in the Cotswold Craftsmen marquee, along the main walkway from the entrance to the Floral Marquee again so do pop in and say hello, maybe even treat yourself to something shiny or commission something really special.

Workshop and Barking Dog Gallery
Arkane is now well settled in to the workshop in Chalford along with Nat Morley (woodcut prints) at Hallidays Mill in Chalford, London Road, Stroud, GL6 8NR (1a and 1b, right at the front of the building). The foyer area has been turned into a splendid gallery area (by our fab land-lord!) and we are displaying work there too. We call it the Barking Dog Gallery Unfortunately, my beautiful and beloved barking dog Toby is no longer with us but we keep the name in his memory. If you see me in there when passing by, you are welcome to knock on the door – I may even let you in Or call ahead if you would like to make an appointment – 07961 914 957.
