My
work was very well received at the Spring Fair.
A number of new potential customers are currently
considering using my artwork on their products.
I am in the final stages of negotiating three
new licensing agreements (one for art prints,
one for stationery and one for cards, bags &
wrap).
I
will be exhibiting my work at two major shows
in 2005. I will be in hall 3 (stand G28) at the
Spring Fair, Birmingham NEC in February 2005 and
in hall 1 (stand 1324) at Surtex, New York in
May 2005.
I
have signed licensing agreements relating to fine
art prints with Unicorn Fine Art Editions Ltd,
Rosenstiel's and Wizard & Genius.
Interstat,
the leading publisher in Holland for paper products
and gift related items, has used my artwork on
various stationery products.
I
have signed a number of agreements with the Rights
International Group for the licensing of various
pieces of floral artwork. The artwork will be
published as Art Prints or Art Cards and sold
on a worldwide basis by IKEA.
A
Scottish print company has licensed a number of
pieces of artwork for small canvas prints. These
products are aimed at the home & interiors
market.
An
article featuring my career as a freelance designer
appeared in the Winter/Spring 2004 edition of
the magazine Total Art Licensing. Please click

I
am now working beside other freelance designers.

My artwork was particularly well
received at the 2003 Spring Fair. A range of my
work was selected for public display in an exhibition
showcase.
My work has been regularly mentioned
in the "Progressive Greetings" magazine
(a UK publication) as well as an American publication
called "Greetings etc".
In
2000 I was a section winner in the Orsini SRL
Tie Competition (click on this link to see a web-based
presentation of my competition entry - tie
presentation - note:this is best viewed using

In 2001 I was highly commended in New York’s
Surtex competition and in 2002 I won a Muraspec
Postgraduate Competition whilst studying for my
Masters.
I also had a solo exhibition in Nexus Galleries
during the Edinburgh Festival Fringe of 2002 and
an art critic nominated my show as being the “pick
of the smaller exhibits”.
