Why I Draw – Twelve Artists Explain

Opening on Saturday, 18th January 2025, at Hive Gallery in Bolton, this group exhibition highlights artists who incorporate drawing as a vital element in their creative practice. Each participant was invited to submit 1–3 pieces for curation, along with a written explanation of how this ancient and fundamental medium enhances—or is essential to—their work.

I’m thrilled to have my work featured alongside pieces by Alan Baker, James David Gibson, Bethan Hamilton, Maggie Hargreaves, Vicki Jones, Robert McLeod, Paddy O’Donnell, Radhika Parekh, Sam, Esther Womack, and Matthew Wood. The exhibition will be open on Fridays and Saturdays from 1–5pm until 1st March 2025—don’t miss it!
