At this time of year, I have enjoyed putting up an exhibition in the Sawmill Barn in Wytham Wood as part of Oxford Art Weeks. In previous years I have exhibited paintings of various iconic trees in Wytham Wood as an artist in residence. This year, I am part of the virtual exhibition Oxford Artweeks 2020.
In early October, I am planning to exhibit a series on the Ash in St John’s College, Oxford, in collaboration with Wytham Woods.
However, in these times, things could change. I shall keep you posted!

With Wytham Wood closed, myself isolated, I have been following an apple tree in my garden since lockdown began. Painting twice a day, the tree moves from bud in March to full leaf in May.
