After a scenic 6 hour journey, 4 days at the SECC Glasgow and lots of lovely trade orders... I'm back in the studio. Scotland's Spring Trade Show was amazing, this was the first time I have exhibited my work over the Scottish border. I already have a great stockist (The Shop of Interest) in Glasgow and I will be updating my stockists list soon on my website with some more lovely new shops across Scotland and the High Lands.

Colour my life

A little less conversation, a little more colour please...

I flit through stages of inspiration and at the moment I'm having a surge of colour moments. Inspiration hit me to continue my investigation after watching a fantastic program on the BBC about Matisse, especially his colour cut outs for JAZZ. Colour is a personal media that more than often reflects your emotional response to a subject, isolating the colour in quick colour palettes gives me families of colours I wouldn't normally choose.
So since 6th April 2010 I have been keeping a daily colour diary over at Colour Lovers http://www.colourlovers.com/lover/craigfellows , again creating quick colour stories based on a mood, dream, anything visual that stimulated my creative senses that day. Quite self indulgent really!
