For several months I have been collecting images and stories relating to shoes. Shoes can tell us a lot about the wearer and are often linked with memories. The collection of shoe stories can be seen at:

For this series of paintings I have concentrated on my own vast collection of shoes. Choosing those that have a special significance to me, and those that for some reason I am unable to throw away.
I am also exhibiting at 10 Acramans road where i will be showing flowers made from unwanted holiday brochures. This explores what happens when language becomes redundant and the escapism that can be found within holiday brochures. Please come along and help yourself to a flower.
