As the exhibition at Blackpool Winter Gardens were rushed as I only had a few days to plan I bought frames that were suitable but where gold so I painted it black but you could see the brush strokes and the prints were a bit pixelated so I was not too happy with the images I was exhibiting at Blackpool but got good feedback from the image.
I went to go pick my frames up from Paul Graham and even though he said they would be ready they weren't so I have to put up the frames I had until I had received my prints from Paul Graham. When I put them up they looked good from a distance and when you got up close you could see the quality of the image but Jayne was happy with them.
I went back with my final prints which were the same size print but the frames where different making it smaller. I replaced two and after looking at the I felt along with Jayne that they did not have the same impact as the ones in the black frames. I swapped them back and decided to leave the prints thats are already up. Jayne has another wall similar size and she said I could fill that as well with prints. I spoke with her and mentioned I had an exhibition in Burnley and once that was done could I come back fill the other side of the wall and she was more than happy for me to do this as said I could have my work up as long as I would like to or when decides to have a change.
Below is the wall with my images exhibited on it. I has set the frames like that so the wall does not too as bare and your eyes follow it across and the image goes up in person and the story continues through each image.

Overall I like the look of the images but would like to replace them with better frames and prints and would like to put more work up on the other side and have an official opening night once I have managed to hang more work up. I have happy that Jayne the owner is happy with the images and she has said that I have had a good feedback and people have been interested in purchasing my images.
