London’s the place to be… the Jubilee, Wimbledon, and the Olympic Games
I was there in July for different kinds of events… to see some graduate shows
The Royal College of Art
The Royal Academy
Goldsmiths
Norwich University College of the Arts
And to see some friends who let me take these pictures
Keep your eye out for our online exhibitions of some fabulous young British artists (not the YBAs), and also our podcast – Art to Art Episode 3: NEW TALENT UK

Flora & Jonny
I stayed with Flora and Jonny and their dog Dallas above Jonny’s pub in Peckham in London’s vibrant south east. Above the pub Jonny also runs a gallery
Flora and i met while she was in Australia on a working holiday and doing some residencies, she had just graduated from The Glasgow School of Art. Now also a graduate of The Royal College of Art she exhibits regularly in London









John & Tushar, with Don
I met New Zealand born ceramic artist John Dawson in Auckland while visiting sculptor Terry Stringer
He and Tushar asked me over to their home for dinner in leafy Charlton which is filled with John’s ceramics, and quite a number of works by other artists, with his studio in the garden









Quentin
Part-time Sydney resident, friend and client of the gallery Quentin is currently in the middle of setting up his new London apartment where he is currently based. I insisted that I drop by before we went to lunch so that I could have a sticky beak. About a hundred meters from the entrance to TATE Modern I was a bit distracted by the views of St Paul’s, The Shard and the city skyline, but managed to capture a few images of the some of the works Quentin has started to put up

Hello just wanted to give you a quick heads up.
The words in your post seem to be running off the screen in Firefox.

Hello would you mind sharing which blog platform you’re using? I’m going to
start my own blog in the near future but I’m having a tough time selecting between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something unique.
P.S Apologies for being off-topic but I had to ask!

I leave a response whenever I appreciate a post on a website or if I
have something to add to the conversation.
It’s triggered by the passion communicated in the article I read. And after this post Robin Gibson Gallery: blog. I was excited enough to leave a commenta response :-) I do have a couple of questions for you if it’s okay.
Could it be just me or do a few of the comments look as if
they are left by brain dead folks? :-P And, if you are writing on other
sites, I’d like to follow everything new you have to post. Could you make a list all of your community sites like your Facebook page, twitter feed, or linkedin profile?

Lots of a occasions when folks a product, it would be an electronic item, or just a skin care cream, they forget to calculate the hidden costs.
A range of scientific research have attributed the usefulness of this
compound to its inherent ability to encourage the production
of collagen and elastin.According to the company, the inclusion of only all-natural elements helps to stop users from experiencing unnecessary side effects common to such
treatments.A single jar lasted him about two months before it ran out, and he had already begun to see outcomes following the
first month.All in all, mainly because of the expense of the item,
so would not recommend this product to anyone.
