Photographic exhibition, Richmond, N Yorks

[Gordon G]

Having checked with Mr Kelly that I'm ok to do this, I'd like to let everyone know my first solo photographic exhibition is opening soon at the Station gallery, Richmond, N. Yorks. Running from 10-21st Feb, I will be showing a collection of landscape prints themed around water the landscape. Quite a lot of them were shot from a canoe, or from places reached by canoe, and some have featured in blogs on here.
The prints are in a limited edition of 10 and will be available for sale at the gallery (and once I've worked out how to do it, through my website www.northpeakphotography.co.uk as well). I printed them all myself, on fine art Hahnemuhle paper using archival quality pigment inks, although the mounting and framing has been done by a local framer.
It's been a long process from the original idea being planted and nurtured by various photographic friends, and with only a few weeks to go, it's finally starting to feel real. I will be at the gallery between 10.30am and 2pm on both days of the opening weekend. If anyone fancies a look, be sure to say hello.

Well done Gordon!

I'd have loved to come there, meet and support it especially given the location but it'll be a bit too far

best wishes with it though. I always enjoy what you post here and look forward to seeing more.

Remind us nearer the time and I'll flag it up through the Regional Development Team

Congratulations Gordon and well deserved. Hope the exhibition is a great success for you mate.

I echo what Mark said in post 3. I hope it goes well.

[Gordon G]

So the prints are all framed and I'm in the process of getting them all on the gallery wall today. It's looking good so far...

Thanks

Might get a chance to pop in this afternoon

Do you know what time the gallery is open until as they're not answering the phone and it's not clear on the website

The gallery is open while the building is, so if there's a late film showing in the cinema you should be able to get in.
The shopshuts at 7pm Wednesdays and 5pm (I think) other days.
I'll be up there again this Sunday afternoon until about 4pm

How's it going Gordon? Good feedback? Sales?

[Gordon G]

Really well - 12 sales, which is more than I hoped for, and some lovely feedback. It's been great talking to people about my images, photography in general and a bit of paddling. I've met some really interesting people while they've viewed the exhibition.
I'll be up there again tomorrow for a few hours and it's running still until 21st.

[meirion]

Brilliant, really glad it is going well for you

[Gordon G]

Last chance to visit tomorrow - I'll be taking the exhibition off the wall Thursday morning.
And a big thank you for the support on this thread too. It's the first time I've done this so it's been a bit of a step in the dark.

[meirion]

Now that you know what's involved I bet the World is your lobster !!!!!!!

[Gordon G]

It was an interesting process. I think next time will be easier! I finished with 16 sales, and made some good contacts too.
I just need to decide if I want to push this or just take the opportunities as they come along.
