Exciting!

Exciting times. A brief display at Kirkcaldy railway station followed by the installation of 11 of the 50 'through the glass' portraits that all three streams of my students have been working on for the past 5 weeks at the forecourt of Kirkcaldy Museum and Gallery. 

It was so wonderful to see the pictures out, being shared and getting great reactions. 

Tonight is the Diane Arbus opening at Kirkcaldy Museum and Galleries and I can't wait to see our lovely students sharing their work and enjoying the Diane Arbus exhibition with friends and family.

My students are on their second major painting project of the year, this time they are busy painting from portraits I took of them through glass objects.
The results so far are great, as is the wonderful the ambition and drive of these students.
These works we are going to be exhibited outside and they are part of the students work in support and response to the work of Diane Arbus which is to be exhibited at Kirkcaldy Museum next month supported by the Fife Contemporary Arts young curators programme, my colleague Andrew Kelly and Kyle Noble.
