The New Arcadian Journal at 30 - exhibition of work

From 17th January - 19th March 2011 some of my illustrations for the New Arcadian Journal (NAJ) will feature in an exhibition which is being held at Leeds University Gallery to celebrate the Journal's 30th anniversary. "Creative and bucolic, the New Arcadian Journal, continues to shed new light on historical landscapes as well as contemporary artists' gardens, by championing the study of political gardening, and by promoting restoration of place and meaning."

A further exhibition featuring my work for the NAJ is also scheduled to open towards the end of 2011 in the library of the Henry Moore Institute in Leeds. I shall post full details of this nearer the time.
