My work on display art Showborough House Garden Art Show


I dropped off my artwork this afternoon at Showborough House for the Affordable Garden Art Competition and Exhibition which starts 3rd May and continues to 17th June.

Really pleased with end product and it has been secured in a perfect spot in the gardens which will show it off to its best during the show. See the photo of the piece in position!

Showborough House is situated in the village of Twyning, Gloucestershire GL20 6DN. The show is free to visit and the gardens are filled with a mix of traditional and contemporary art/sculpture.

The show is a not for profit event with all entry fees going into the competition prize.

If anyone fancies a different type of day out viewing art and sculpture by local artists in some lovely gardens, visit the show website for directions.

I am really looking forward to the show and excited that one of my pieces of photo art is on display. Its been over 4 years since I last participated in an art exhibition, so its especially great to get my work out into the public again.

Your help needed - see my art shown in major New York art exhibition



I have just signed up for a major New York art exhibition selection process to have the chance of displaying one of my photo art pieces displayed on the large screens in Times Square: http://jasonconway.artistswanted.org/atts2012

This is a fantastic opportunity to get major exposure for my work. The competition and show is organised by Artists Wanted and the show is titled "Art Takes Times Square'. There is a grand prize of $10,000 for the winner, but just getting my work shown on such a large scale would be a huge stepping stone and could help me to sell my work and secure more prestigious exhibitions in the future.

My passion for a long time has been photography and art and my photo art brings my photo manipulation expertise and photo experience together. My work is a mix of odd and miniture worlds all around us often overlooked in our busy day to day lives.

I would love to get my work shown and with your help this could be possible. All I need is to secure 77 votes on my profile and my work is automatically featured in the show!

So this is a plea to anyone out there to help my passion to be noticed in this major art expo in Times Square.

All that is needed is to visit the link and click the 'collect me' text at the top of the screen to secure your votes. You can also help by sharing my profile with your contacts.

Fingers crossed and now its over to you....
