Please scroll down for details of the latest print releases, There was a monthly print release in 2022 following on from the rather successful print releases of Autumn 2021, the plan was for a limited edition print release once a month throughout 2022, sometimes the release would be something new, sometimes something from the past///

We did consider carrying on with a monthly 2023 print release, but no, these things need to be considered properly and well, here we are in june 2023 and there are two new limited edition print releases now…. All the prints still available can be found via the Cultivate online shop

June 2023 – There are two new print releases this month, two print versions of two recent paintings, both 20cm x 20cm prints or if you like seven inch single sized prints (I rather like that). Once again both are a limited signed/numbered edition of 20. a Giclée print on matt finish 300 gram Hahnemühle Fine Art Bamboo paper. In Bloom is a print of a painted based on a Nirvana lyric, the originals painting (now sold) was painted ahead of the recent Flora and Fauna edition of the Art Car Boot Fair.

September’s limited edition release is a print that people have been asking for and as we’re here on September 1st, eleven years on from the very day Cultivate opened and we’re kind of looking back for a moment. This month’s release is a print from a painting made in 2010 and first shown at one of my favourite shows over at the Dissenter’s Chapel in Kensal Green Cemetery West London that year. People have asked to buy the painting itself many times but for some reason I’ve never wanted to part with It, i usually don’t hold on to paintings but this one means something a little extra, not sure what? Maybe things were more hopeful then? Once again the print release is a limited signed/numbered edition of 25. a matt finish Giclée print on 290gms Hahnemühle Fine Art Bamboo paper. Size is 30x38cm (12x15in).

I grew up on the isle of Anglesey, North Wales, growing a new daffodil every year was a big part of Junior school with Miss Smith, it has always stuck with me. Every year around this time I find myself painting or drawing daffodils and thinking back. I did this painting in Hackney in 2011, I;ve been asked several times if there was a print

November 2021

Prints are something new for me, I’ve avoided the idea until now. the recent paintings on glossy fashion magazine covers and pages really did demand a print, so yes, there are now prints, first I have ever done. One called McQueen and one called The Queen, both limited editions of 25 and both on sale at £35. (actually I did print rather a lor back in my art student/textile design days, but that is rather old history now)

There is also a third print, so many of you were asking me to do a print of some of the Ten paintings gather together, I always said I wouldn’t but hey, never say never. Once again a limited edition of 25 and once again on sale at £35. I must say, after all the years of saying no, I must confess these prints are rather exciting me.

There is a small number of the prints avaiable via the Cultivate on-line shop. I don’t expect they will be there for too long.

Each of the three prints are limited numbered editions of 25. Hand signed with an “s” on the art and fully signed and numbered at the foot of the art on the front. Lowest number available will be sent.
