Picture removed in case some thieving bd chooses to use it without my permission or paying me a penny.

My photograph Madonna and Child is to be shown at Proud Galleries as part of an exhibition 'Renaissance'. Further details of the exhibition may be found by visiting http://www.renaissancephotography.org/exhibition.p... It should be an interesting show and I hope that some of you may be able to pay it a visit.

Opening times -

Thursday and Friday - 11.00-19.00
Saturday - 11.00-17.00
Sunday - 11.00-18.00

Well done Emma - great stuff

[Planet Claire]

I'm up in London on Saturday, meeting some friends, and will probably want an art gallery to look around - this might just do the trick!

Good luck with the exhibition too!

It opens to the public on 6th March and is up until 9th March. The private view is 5th March.

Well done!

I've just browsed the competition winners - there looks to be loads of inspiring stuff there and some really great images. Have to say the "Madonna and Child" is superb, Emma.

Hope I can get along between 6th and 9th....

I know his work well. He produced that series a year or so before I did mine. He did inspire me a great deal. Mine is one of a series of seven photographs based on Renaissance paintings. Each photograph depicted a modern day equivalent of classical themes. St Sebastian - a pierced man, signifying the pleasure and pain of martyrdom (my friend, up some scaffolding, stark-bollock naked on a building site); Venus and Adonis - my cynical take on modern day relationships and 'lads'; Adam and Eve - two body-builders, alluding to the use of steroids; The Three Graces - a look at young women, club culture and the corrupting influence of sex, drugs and smoking; The Crucifixion - anti-road protestors, sacrificing all for their beliefs; and Victory - rising young stars in football.

Ooh! What's on at the Barbican? I haven't checked out what is showing at the moment in London.

Is it this?

Do you know I must have imagined that the times were up there. What an over-sight! I'll give them a call in the morning and post the details on here.

Thank you all for your good wishes and generous words.
