RHS Wisley Contemporary Art and Craft Christmas Fair - on Now

The Craft in Focus Christmas Contemporary Art Fair at RHS Wisley is on now. Jan has set up our stand and is there on her own to run it. Our stand is just inside the entrance to the fair.

Here's a photo of the stand to give you an idea of what we have on offer, lots of framed and unframed photographs, both my black and white and Jan's colour ones. Around 400 prints in all from 20 x 20cm to 100 x 50cm, £5 to £500. There is even a rarity, a limited edition print from me (that's the £500 print, print 2 from a print run of just 10).

My 2 new books, Land Light and Snow Light, are on offer too. There's copies of City Light and Peak Light too. Details of next years courses are available too, they're on the website too.

Say hi to Jan if you visit! The show opens at 9am every day and runs until Sunday evening.

Last Christmas Shows of 2015 - RHS Wisley and Harrogate

We have done fewer Christmas shows this year than previously. Just 2 left over the next 2 weekends, RHS Wisley with Craft in Focus starts on Wednesday 25th and runs to Sunday 29th November. Country Living Christmas Fair in Harrogate starts Thursday 3rd and ends on Sunday 6th December.

We had to cancel our stand at Blenheim Palace after my bad back gave me serious pain and put me in bed for 3 days in August, unable to move. It's taking me a long time to recover but I will be fitter and stronger for the future. I have already lost 3kg through extra exercise, for example.

Here's the information on RHS Wisley with a discount voucher (RHS members get in free). It's the highest quality designer-maker show that we do, in fact we haven't found a better one! Full information on the Craft in Focus website: www.craftinfocus.com. Jan will be doing this one on her own, stand A04 near the entrance.

At both shows we will have lots of new photos, both my black and white and Jan's colour. Lots of framed pictures too. We also have a special show offer on my 2 new books Land Light and Snow Light, and there are still a few copies of my Peak District book Peak Light left (23 in fact!) in case you still need to buy one to complete your collection of my books. Lake Light and High Light are now completely sold out.
