Varnishing Day is a highlight of being selected for the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition and this year, despite the train strikes, I managed to get down for a day of excitement at the Academy.
A bit about the Summer Exhibition:
The Royal Academy's Summer Exhibition has for more than 250 years given amateur artists the chance to have their work displayed at its prestigious London headquarters. It presents an unparalleled opportunity for amateur artists to have their work publicly displayed and then purchased, although entries are capped at 16,500 and competition is fierce - this year, more than 11,000 people submitted work but less than 10% were successful.
A bit about Varnishing Day:
Historically, artists would visit the galleries to add final touches to their work in situ. Today, Varnishing Day remains a part of the Summer tradition, but it’s now mostly a day to celebrate the artists in the show. Before visiting the show, the artists gather in the courtyard, form a procession down Piccadilly led by a steel band, then attend an artists’ blessing at St. James’s church.
I was absolutely delighted to see my works hung together in gallery VII selected by artist Eileen Cooper OBE RA. She has hung my work in previous years so I am honoured she has chosen my work again. I am also in good company, hung on the same wall as my university tutor John Hewitt.
Here’s my work in situ:

I am delighted that both artworks submitted have been selected for this years exhibition. This is the 4th time I have exhibited but the first time I have had both artworks selected.
The world’s largest open submission exhibition is back, featuring work in every medium imaginable.
The Summer Exhibition is our annual celebration of art and artists, run without interruption since 1769. Anyone can submit their work and – if your work is selected by our panel of artists – it will go on display in our Main Galleries.
This year, celebrated British painter David Remfry RA takes the reins as exhibition co-ordinator. Remfry’s Summer Exhibition will explore the theme Only Connect, taken from the famous quote in Howards End by E.M. Forster.
The Summer Exhibition shows every imaginable medium – from prints, paintings, film and photography to sculpture, architectural works and more – by leading artists, Royal Academicians and household names as well as new and emerging talent. Most of the works are available to buy and sales from the Summer Exhibition directly support the exhibiting artists and the RA's charitable work, including training the next generation of artists in the Royal Academy Schools.
Here’s a snap of my artworks shortlisted for this years Royal Academy of Arts Summer Exhibition all framed up. Yesterday, I travelled down to London to hand them in to the Academy for the final round of judging. Final results are announced on the 24th May. Wish me luck!
May’s sale will focus on limited edition square prints which are now just £10..
