TT Tonic - Racing Round the Houses

3rd to 29th September 2008

I am thrilled to have been invited back to Ards Arts Centre this September for a new exhibition on a favourite theme - road racing.
Opening only a fortnight after the unveiling of a permanent memorial to the Ards TT in Conway Square, Newtownards, the exhibition features new paintings of the Ards races as well as a selection of works depicting the 1950s Tourist Trophy races at Dundrod in County Antrim.
Also featured are the Irish Grand Prix and the earlier Tourist Trophy races on the Isle of Man.
