Philip Braham ‘Still’.

So we are fast approaching the opening of what I believe will be one of the most thrilling (and long overdue) exhibitions Edinburgh has seen in a long time.

You can have a look at the work in this superb catalogue with foreword by Dr Dom Smith from Dundee University.

I have an awful lot of ‘favourites’ in this exhibition, but the one below is a definite….and the last painting to to be finished for the show.

Astonishing!

‘Still’.

In my last post I promised to reveal all about my recent trip to the woods with award winning artist Philip Braham. Phil is working hard now to finish the final painting for his exhibition, ‘Still’. which will open during the Edinburgh Art Festival. As the date looms ever closer, I feel it is an appropriate time to reveal the ‘fruits of our labour’, as they say. I should add that all hard labour has been down to Philip Braham who has been the consummate professional in the lead up to his exhibition.

‘Bluebell Woods’ is a large scale painting and I confess that it scared me the first time I viewed it in Phil’s studio: a sensation I’ne never experienced from a painting, but in a sensational way. Brace yourselves for August folks-’Still’. is a must see.
