My paintings are of the less fashionable areas of towns and Cities where I grew up and have revisited with renewed vision. They are places in a state of decay, often unnoticed but part of our everyday lives. This painting was selected and hung at The Royal Accademy Summer Exhibition 2008, where I was interviewed with the painting and featured on the BBC Culture Show. This painting appears in the RA summer exhibition catologue of a view of the Small Weston Room and the image is currently used every year on the RA summer exhibition website.
