Ferrara Buskers Festival - first day!

What a great day I had at Ferrara Buskers Festival! My stand looked really dashing thanks to all the help received from my friend Gaia (whom after today I am tempted to employ as my very own personal agent!!!) and I had many happy customers leaving with a little personalised aura portrait. All of them really liked the idea of having their name written in hangul embedded into the portrait ㅋㅋㅋLooking forward to go back to more painting sessions over the next few days.

Please come and see me at work at the Giardino delle Duchesse square.

More updates to follow ~~~

Ferrara Buskers Festival - The beginning

After a wonderful yet short time wandering around museums in Venice I have now arrived in Ferrara ready for the Buskers Festival ~ Really happy!!!! Registration went smoothly in the usual totally chilled out and (dis)organised yet super relaxed Italian style. There is something great about Italian festivals as everybody seem to be totally relaxed and just there for the sake of having a great time....

Really grateful to my friend Gaia who came with me and helped me to plan my little aura painting stall + table setting at the allocated festival area whilst commissioning me a painting or two for her restaurant!

Looking forward to start painting today and create as many individual aura portraits as I can...if you live close to Ferrara and plan to head to the festival, do not forget to come and see me working!!!! 

Come one, come all to the Ferrara Buskers festival!!!

Artists registration time!

Ferrara Buskers Festival 2013 - Here I come!!!!

With my great pleasure I have been selected as one of the accredited artists participating to the 26th edition of the Italian street artists festival called Ferrara Buskers Festival 2013.

I will be a graphic artist in the Esoteric area of the festival working on small size quick sketches in acrylics inspired by people's aura and inner energy. I am really looking forward to participate to this festival, something that I have always wanted to do, and it is a true honour having been selected for it.

The festival is on for little over a week but you will see me painting only from Sunday 26 till Saturday 31 August 2013. If you are going to be in Ferrara towards the end of August, please come and see me there!
I will post updates on my participation to the festival as soon these are available.

Cambridge Open Studios 2013

With many apologies for the long break....I am back now with lot of updates to follow!
Recently I have been helping out with the curatorial side of one of the exhibitions part of the Cambridge Open Studios 2013 event. The exhibition features the work of two fellow artists, Rog Palmer, photographer, and Virginia Neild, figurative artist, whose focus is on the world of performing arts. I have designed the exhibition poster and also helped with the image selection and promotional material for Rog Palmer’s Moments from a stream of continuous action

If you are around Cambridge over these weekends, please go and have a look at the exhibition.

Jankura ArtSpace in Seoul

Yesterday I went to visit my friend Mike Steward at his new Art Studio /Art Academy in Seoul, Jankura ArtSpace 잔쿠라.

The studio and art school is a very cool place and also offer the opportunity to resident artists such as James Green to have their own creative space. If you are in Seoul and fancy to learn how to paint and draw, please go and book a session! Personally I was very happy to see one of my pieces exhibited together with other artist's pieces on the studio wall!!! (can you guess which was is????)
The piece was created for the Nude Exhibition in Seoul a while back.
