Last week I was invited to Falmouth University to give a talk about my work. Alongside this I presented some works: 8 paintings (2015-2026), my book ‘Professional Salad: Vol.1’ presented as a slideshow, and one of my ‘R. Crudd’ benches, in their Goldfish Bowl Gallery.

It’s often assumed, when I meet and speak with people for the first time, that I teach. Truth is, I’ve only ever done a very small amount of this, formally/officially (ie. being paid). I’ve had an unconventional route into doing what I do, and perhaps this doesn’t sit well with the rigidity of academic institution’s recruitment policies.

It’s nice when I do get invited, and I enjoy speaking with students and hearing what they’re into and working on. So, thank you Jonty Lees and Oliver Thomas-Irvine for the invite on this occasion.

Times are tough, and we’re constantly under pressure to adapt and figure out workarounds. Education systems have to be open and adaptive too. There is no singular route, no fixed formula. Life, and art, and therefore a life ‘in’ art is messy. For most of us, this is unavoidable.

I started showing my work in 2006, and since, I’ve taken myself down many wormholes of self-initiated study and practice including graphic design, sculpture, establishing a few project spaces, painting, building and running an independent art library, curating exhibitions, self-publishing, publishing works by others, carpentry, cabinet making, architecture and exhibition design, and art practices of the past and present.

This is the final weekend to see the show. The gallery space at Falmouth University’s Woodlane campus, Falmouth TR11 4RH, will be open Saturday 10th October only. @falmouthfineart @falmouthuni by @christopherpgreen

Just over a week left to catch ’10 Good Years’, curated by Joe Lyward at The Heong Gallery, Cambridge UK.

Here are some photos of the very smart, and comprehensive catalogue that’s been put together for the show, including a wonderfully insightful text by Rachel Rose Smith, tying together the works and artists included in the show.

I’m an advocate for printed documentation of exhibitions; if you can’t make it to a show, you can experience it via a (good) catalogue, and this one, I think, provides that experience. Available from The Heong Gallery shop in person and online for just £12.

The exhibition marks 10th anniversary of The Heong Gallery, paying homage to its inaugural exhibition ‘Generation Painting 1955-65: British Art from the Collection of Sir Alan Bowness’. Ten Good Years re-shows selected works from this collection, and introduces new works produced over the past ten years by artists with connections to West Penwith, Cornwall.

The show includes works by Wilhelmina Barns-Graham, Simon Bayliss, Alan Davie, Pam Evelyn, Terry Frost, Christopher P. Green, Patrick Heron, Realf Heygate, Lubaina Himid, Peter Lanyon, Janet Leach, Siobhan McLaughlin, Richard Smith, Lucy Stein, Mark Tobey, Jonathan Micheal Ray, Ro Robertson, and Veronica Ryan.

The exhibition runs until 11th October 2026.

I’m fortunate to have been invited by the Fine Art team at Falmouth University to be artist-in-residence at Gwithian Chapel throughout September.

Gwithian, and its adjacent towans are very special, intensely beautiful, wild places. I’ll share more soon, but for now here are some brief insights. Three work tables - the magic number ✨

Some installation photos of my painting ‘Fensterladen (Blood Orange/Pink w.White) - S-chanf/22’ which is included in the exhibition ’10 Good Years’, curated by Joe Lyward (@lywardian) at The Heong Gallery (@heong_gallery) , Cambridge UK.

Here you see it hanging alongside a work by my friend Ro Robertson, and a work by Peter Lanyon. Joe chose this specific work of mine for its connection to both Richard Smith and Patrick Heron; on many occasions preceding the shows inception we had spoken about our shared appreciation for both these artist’s works and practices. I had the pleasure of working with the ever-attentive Joe on a show last year at @_hweg_ , the gallery he runs in Penzance.

The exhibition marks the 10th anniversary of The Heong Gallery, paying homage to its inaugural exhibition ‘Generation Painting 1955-65: British Art from the Collection of Sir Alan Bowness’. Ten Good Years re-shows selected works from this collection, and introduces new works produced over the past ten years by artists with connections to West Penwith, Cornwall.

The show includes works by Wilhelmina Barns-Graham, Simon Bayliss, Alan Davie, Pam Evelyn, Terry Frost, Christopher P.

Ten Good Years celebrates the gallery’s anniversary by paying homage to its inaugural exhibition 'Generation Painting 1955–65: British Art from the Collection of Sir Alan Bowness'. This exhibition showcased works from the collection of Bowness, a former Director of the Tate Gallery and a Downing College alumnus. Ten Good Years re-shows selected works from this collection by significant mid-twentieth-century artists such as Peter Lanyon, Patrick Heron, and Wilhelmina Barns-Graham, and introduces new works produced over the past ten years by artists with connections to West Penwith, Cornwall.

Ten Good Years features work by Wilhelmina Barns-Graham, Simon Bayliss, Alan Davie, Pam Evelyn, Terry Frost, Christopher P. Green, Patrick Heron, Realf Heygate, Lubaina Himid, Peter Lanyon, Janet Leach, Siobhan McLaughlin, Richard Smith, Lucy Stein, Mark Tobey, Jonathan Micheal Ray, Ro Robertson, and Veronica Ryan.

In conjunction with the exhibition, other work from Bowness’s collection will be shown at Cambridge’s other major galleries: William Scott at Kettle’s Yard and Roger Hilton at The Fitzwilliam Museum.
