I had my first solo debut Exhibition at Gallery 118 in Notting Hill, and above, are the paintings I exhibited.

Those in the primary colours are acrylic on canvas. And, those in blue, black, and white (mainly) are on recycled wood panels in household/domestic paint.
This collection was one I based on the theme of LIFE and BODY, in all its many variations.
I must give special thanks to Gallery 118, especially Robin Saikia and Charles, because without them, this would not have been possible.
I thank my relentlessly helpful friend Jacqueline Nsirim, who came with me to carry huge panels of wood down the road. Whenever my beady eyes spotted it, she was there offering to get splinters in her hands with me.
King Ricci; Thankyou to you, for giving me tins upon tins of domestic paint you found in your shop! ;)
Lola Peach Baxter; Photographer Extraordinaire. Photos were amazing babe! Thankyou!
Victor Orji (Creative Circle Group) & Julian Baschieri-Salvadori - Photography and Filming. Beautiful. Thankyou to you both. You guys Rock.
And Finally Big Thankyou's to Liza Klaussman (New York Times) and Laura Paulini (The Grove Magazine) .....................AND BIG KISSES AND HUGS TO EVERYONE WHO CAME. YOU GUYS MADE IT SPECIAL......................
...................NEXT exhibition, will be based on BLOOD, in whichever way blood can be construed and conveyed, I am going to explore it. OOOOhhhhh I CANT WAIT.

  4. Hey Laura, yeah you're work is really cool. I like it :)
    My course is cool, it's at a small college in wales (yeh wales,lol) but it is pretty nice there, its chilled and cool.

    The pussy pic made me laugh, it reminded me of sex and the city when that artist shows Charlotte a load of pictures of pussy.lol.

    I haven't any work I'd like to show at the moment, none of it expresses me some how. I'd love to get into some sort of expressionism like Franz Marcs style though.

    Anyway I must shut up.
    Take care and keep painting,lol. xx
