Chelsea Physic Garden: Celebrating 350 Years in Paint and Print
8 – 25 June 2023
Chelsea Physic Garden: 350 Years in Paint and Print is an exhibition of works by selected artists of the Royal Watercolour Society (RWS) and Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers (RE) marking the 350th anniversary of Chelsea Physic Garden.
Over the past year, selected RWS and RE artists have had access to the garden to be able to study, record and document it throughout the changing seasons. The resulting works will make for a unique and vibrant exhibition at Bankside Gallery celebrating the history and significance of London’s oldest botanic garden.

RWS NOW The inaugural exhibition at the new RWS Gallery at Whitcomb Street
7 – 21 June 2023
Spread across both of the newly renovated ground and lower-ground gallery spaces, RWS NOW will feature original artworks in water-based media by almost every present day artist Member, Associate, Guest and Honorary Member of the RWS. This extraordinary display of work will include pieces by artists such as Barbara Rae, David Remfry, and Diana Armfield to name just a few.
The first official Royal Watercolour Society exhibition (since the almost year-long soft launch) will commemorate the RWS’s return to the gallery they were based at around 200 years ago.

Art Fundraiser in Aid of Ukraine
I have a work in this online exhibition organised by the Bankside Gallery.
Art Fundraiser in aid of Ukraine
Online Exhibition | 16 – 23 March
In response to the horrific events unfolding in Ukraine, we have launched an online art fundraiser with 100% of the proceeds going to the Disasters Emergency Committee’s Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal.
This exhibition is made up of a brilliant selection of paintings and original prints, all of which have been very generously donated by artists of the Royal Watercolour Society (RWS) and Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers (RE).
We hope that you enjoy this collection and find an artwork to treasure, while supporting such an important cause.
FUNDRAISER RAFFLE – DEC Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal
Gallagher and Turner are fundraising to support the DEC Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal via Just Giving www.justgiving.com/fundraising/GallagherandTurner
In this time when families are being torn apart, a time of such great courage in the face of death and destruction, art seems such a frivolity. Creativity, however, is one of the things that makes us human, it allows us to communicate and to celebrate our power in the face of oppression. We would like to make it a practical force for good and use it to raise desperately needed aid funding in this European humanitarian crisis.
All details on their webpage here.
I’ve donated Red Villa, Burano, Venice, watercolour.
