Exhibition Update!
I’ve finally got a date when this exhibition will take place (2nd-30th September, Canon Place, London). The original exhibition space unfortunately fell through so the organisers worked hard to get a replacement venue in order to feature our work. It’s with great regret that I’m not able to attend the awards evening or even the event itself, but I’m sure it will be an amazing event. Fingers crossed this fella can help raise some much needed money for cheetah conservation charities.

Voting closes 31st July after which they’ll announce the winners and I’ll find out if my work will be exhibited in Nottingham later this year.
