Which picture do people stop to look at most? This one:

Which picture do people stop to look at most? This one:

“Rain: Magnolia on Fortune Green Road“

It’s another iPad drawing that I nearly didn’t bother to get printed for the show at Burgh House (details below).

“Nobody wants to look at a rainy picture,” I told myself.

I was wrong, apparently.

I’ve spent a lot of time in the gallery showing people how I use the iPad.

They seem particularly taken with the saved “action replay” videos (3).

I like doing that. People look amazed to see something so affordable and portable and intuitive.

I also explain how the printing works – how I get my prints made at the superb Print Space in Hoxton (5).

The colours are so vivid, the details so fine.
