TO INSPIRE / Makoto Toya and this incredible painting on washi paper is part of @ArtEnables online exhibition ‘Outside Forces.’ Check out there fish having a jolly good time in the glass! 🐠
ONLINE EXHIBITION | Another artist from my Gallery that features in the current 'Outside Forces' online exhibition with @ArtEnables is Margaret Mousseau with work ... 'What did we find... A new home!'
Do check out the show & the other 100 self-taught artists on their website.
TO INSPIRE | Makoto Toya (b.1944), currently in his 70s, has been drawing since his teens. He states that he feels something akin to a ‘high’ as draws. This of course doesn't last forever, thus he feels the urge to continue drawing until he reaches that state of eurphoria again.
IN CONVERSATION | Margaret Mousseau’s work was bought to my attention last year by her son in #America. Her work, started 4 years ago, often features topical issues or events that have happened in her life.

REVIEW | The new @RawVisionMag is hitting people’s postboxes as we speak. Turn to the back to see a review by @colinrhodes11 of my #monochromaticminds exhibition that was recently in #London, with funding from @ace_national

MANCHESTER | In these uncertain times let’s remind ourselves of the uplifting exhibition earlier in the year at @CastlefieldGall ‘Thumbs Up’ 👍🏻. It featured two artists from @VentureArts Leslie Thompson & Michael Beard as featured here, alongside two artists without a disability.
NEW YORK | Making her debut at @outsiderartfair is #MargaretMousseau who only started drawing in her sixties as part of her therapy.
This piece titled ‘Flying Away From Home’ has something to do with Margaret’s youth when she was trying to run away from something. #oafnyc2020
LONDON | Get yourself to the #AntonyGormley exhibition at the @royalacademy before it closes on 3 December - the room with the twisted #aluminium #wire is amazing as this has expanded during the exhibition!
LONDON - Last night I caught ‘The Mediums Medium’ - @Gallevery booth at @FriezeArtFair Masters. Some incredible spiritual art drawings can be viewed so I highly recommend it if you can get along.
It’s only on this weekend in #London but the show at their gallery is up longer!
Opening tomorrow at @whitecolumns in New York is 'Healing Arts' - an exhibition focusing on the HAI archives (Healing Arts Archives)
