All busy here at GC HQ! Looking forward to hanging the show on Wednesday at the Jeannie Avent Gallery, Northcross Street, SE22 9EU. Jonas Ranson has been printing on to mirrors, producing beautiful effects when light reflects off them.There will be two versions available to buy and these will also be available to commission.

I am curating a show of work, taking place in East Dulwich – Northcross Street at the Jeannie Avent gallery. More details will be posted shortly with details of the work to be on show. PV on Thursday 18th….

Putting the word out there for a space to operate from. I’m looking for either a studio space in the SE1 area ideally – or alternatively looking for any opportunity to have a residency in a gallery space or to rent a space in an existing gallery/shop/retail space on a short-term basis.  Am open to options, but would love to hear from anyone who knows of anywhere/somewhere/someone etc.. 

Here’s a pic by Sarah Lippett to keep you all lively on this really drab, cold day. 

Happy New Year to everyone. I hope that 2010 brings you much happiness. Things have been full-on! I’m running myself ragged trying to do too many things and have FINALLY realised that help is required, otherwise it’s never going to get anywhere. So….. I’ve put the word out to some colleges about needing an Intern, but if you are reading this and know of anyone that this would sound appealing to, then please forward it on….

Here’s the spec

Design-savvy Intern required to assist the Director of a new online gallery selling limited edition prints, based in South East London.

Assistance needed with:

• Designing flyers/leaflets/business cards for promotions and dealing with printers etc
• Uploading images to the website
• Sending out Newsletters
• Online marketing : social networking/Facebook/Twitter
• Some very basic admin including fulfilling orders
• Assistance with putting together PDF portfolios to send to clients.
• Help putting up shows and exhibitions and selling artwork at events.
• General assistance to the Director, dealing with artists, framers, stylists etc.

The candidate will need to have the following:

• Indesign/Photoshop knowledge and have their own access to it.
• Have good typographical design skills – this is very important.
• Be comfortable and proactive with Facebook/Twitter etc.
• Be up to date with what is happening in Art & Design Graphics/Illustration
• Ideally have some basic experience of uploading to websites and/or blogs
• Will need to be responsible: the internship requires a degree of initiative and participation

 The benefits:

This position will be a great opportunity to experience first-hand what is involved in setting up a small creative business, and helping it to grow. There are plans for further developments and in time, hopefully a paid position for the right person.

Position is unpaid, but assistance at shows will be paid for with expenses. Help initially required for 2 months on a part-time basis and could suit either a recent graduate or student.

All enquiries, please contact Gina Cross

This is on sale at the East London Design Show. I absolutely love it, makes me chuckle – not likely to be the most popular choice but for those with a warped sense of humour perhaps….Shortly available on A Little bit of Art for £50 each

In keeping with their soon-to-be installed surroundings at Badlambs, Robert has painted some marvelous Hair and Moustache paintings, two are posted here but there are more. Come and see for yourself, more details following very very soon…..

Have got some super large limited edition prints from Anna Marrow showing at the ELDS and also some smaller prints. No pictures of the large ones, but they will be on show at Shoreditch Town Hall this weekend…..

Have spent the afternoon with a lovely character: Gordon Robertson down at Clements Yard near Elephant and Castle. Gordon has produced some wonderful Glitter paintings, which will be put up at Badlambs next week. I’ll also be showing some of his cards and some special other prints at the ELDS this coming weekend.
