Thank you to everyone who visited me in the art market, at The Southern Nature Art Exhibition, last weekend. It was really great to meet you all and converse on all things art, photography, nature etc. To all of you that brought items from me, a super thank you.
For all of you who didn't purchase any of my wares, fear not, I'll be posting shortly about some forthcoming opportunities. I know that you've all gone away to consider your next purchase.
I look forward to meeting you all again, in the near future.

This year my images will be available for sale in Southampton and Romsey (2 venues). The Southampton venue is in the Unit 11 Studios with a group of artists who run the studio as a not for profit collective. Their details can be found at www.unit11artists.co.uk. The two Romsey venues are King Johns House and Heritage Centre (kingjohnshouse.org.uk), as part of their Open Art Exhibition, and at the lovely Christine Watkins' Art House. The Art House is located in Albany Road, and is a short walk from King Johns Hose. It contains 40 artists showing textiles, glass, ceramics, furnishings, wood, paintings and my images - well worth a visit!
In addition to my images, there will be new products available for sale. These include glass tableware (coasters and tablemats), phone and tablet cases, plus greeting cards.
If you're passing by, any of these venues, please drop in and purchase some of my work. Thank you!

After many weeks of deliberation and soul searching, I finally made my choice of images to be entered in to this years New Forest Open Exhibition.
The exhibition is staged at the New Forest Heritage Centre in Lyndhurst and runs from 13th July to 7th September. This ever popular exhibition, sponsored by ExxonMobil Fawley, is now in its seventh year. The New Forest, with its timeless beauty, continues to inspire artists of all ages and to attract painters, sculptors and photographers from across the region. Visitors will have the opportunity to vote for their own favourite piece of work. As many works are for sale, the Open Art exhibition also affords visitors an opportunity to own a piece of their very own New Forest inspired art.
If you're in the area, do pop in. You never know you may walk away with a piece of original art!
Hopefully, my images will be amongst those that are on display. Just have to rely on the judges now - fingers crossed!
The two images will be available to purchase through this website shortly, together with some other recent images of the New Forest.
]]>The exhibition runs throughout the month of May at the Hanger Farm Arts Centre, on the edge of the New Forest in Hampshire. The Arts Festival takes place on 25th May, at the same venue.
Each image, below will be available for sale during the exhibition, or from this website prior to the exhibition.

The two new portfolios are called Pure Food and Pure Products.
This is an area of work that we had overlooked, as far as our web presence was concerned. The images aren't for sale but are shown for showcase purposes, only.
If you, or anybody you know, requires such services please get in touch through our contact form or via e-mail at [email protected]
"Tick tock" was highly commended - not bad for a snapper, up against "real" artists!
The exhibits are hung in public areas within the Salisbury District Hospital and is open from 4th April to 9th May 2019.

This an exhibition of contemporary floral portraits that have been the focus of our output in recent times.
This pretty much brings to a close our exhibiting for this year, however, if anybody out there has any other opportunities we'd be willing to listen.

Lot's of work for sale including some of my own offerings. Prices to suit all pockets! I'll have framed and mounted prints available, plus a range of greeting cards.
I loom forward to a busy day and meeting loads of new people.

Today, was the day for the delivery of the images for the exhibition. I'm always nervous, at this stage, as there are so many things that can go wrong between me uploading the image to the lab and the final delivery. Perhaps, it's because I have a fixed idea of how the image should look or that I'm particular about presentation - I don't know. This time I thought I'd allowed plenty of time, ie 3 weeks, but still managed to have a minor panic when nothing had appeared after two. I phoned the lab to confirm delivery dates, only to be told that they'd rejected the first image and that was why things had been delayed. Only a week to go to the exhibition submission date!
Anyway, after a few more calls the images arrived today - two days before submission and they look stunning. What was I worrying about? Big thanks to all at One Vision Imaging for you help and assistance - I will never doubt you again!
Fingers crossed that I managed to sell now.
The image in question, "Passion" will appear on the website for sale shortly. If you can't wait, however, a low res copy has been posted on my twitter feed @pureimageworks.
Enjoy!

Thankfully, some people with great artistic taste, acumen and empathy decided that my image, "White Dream", was good enough for inclusion in the competition exhibition.
Fast forward to today and we've arrived at the day of the exhibition preview. Time to find out how I fare against the more traditional "real" arty types!
If anybody's interested in viewing my image, in all of its glory, and the work of the other exhibitors then make your way to unit 79a Osborn Mall in the Fareham Shopping Centre. The preview, this evening, is open between 5pm and 7pm.
The exhibition is open until 10th September on Thursdays - Saturdays only. Opening times are 11am - 3pm (10am - 2pm on Fridays).
Support your local art initiatives!
Pure Flora gallery has been extended with some colourful and delightful images. Pure Places gallery has the addition of a small number of evocative images.
Don't forget that all of these images are now available to purchase. Just in time for Fathers Day!
The next step in our quest for world domination!
]]>I hope that you all like it!
]]>We've some, potentially, great images which are currently being prepared for publication on this website and other social media platforms.
Watch this space!
