Steyning Arts art trail – not long to go!
I am exhibiting with some very experienced artists who know their way round a publicity campaign and I’m playing catch-up here with a use of PowerPoint I never could have imagined a few years ago! These are just some of the paintings I’ll be taking and because almost all of them have embedded AR (augmented … Continue reading Steyning Arts art trail – not long to go!

Green screen
Film makers do it regularly but this week everyone’s been doing it, thanks to Matthew Highton sharing his pre-greened clip of Boris (Johnson, who else?) looking lost at a meeting. I’ve never used green screen and I had no idea where to start but a quick search of YouTube, relating in particular to Filmora Pro … Continue reading Green screen
On a mission!
Not sure if I’ll succeed but I’m aiming to have everything I show at the forthcoming Steyning Arts art trail fully Artivive-enabled. That means making videos for each of the pieces of work – pertinent ones that add something to the original – setting the videos up alongside their target image on the Artivive bridge, … Continue reading On a mission!

Artivive in the wild!

I used it for my contribution to our lane’s Advent Window fundraiser (for the local school) whereby … Continue reading Artivive in the wild!

Noses begone!
I’ve been obsessing somewhat with facial features on the grounds that I absolutely can’t graduate this course without being able to render a decent eye or ear, or particularly a nose which never seems to fit the face properly when I’ve done it. But now my second Level 2 (HE5) module has landed and there’s … Continue reading Noses begone!
Village lane advent windows
This year, for the first time, our lane is doing Advent windows to raise money for extras for our local school. The way it works is that each of us – or as many as possible – in the lane ‘unveils’ a decorated window right up to December 24th and they all stay on till … Continue reading Village lane advent windows
