Hi there, just keeping you up to date on the progress of the exhibition. Everything is well and truly on time and I am really pleased with the paintings that I have managed to finish recently. For anyone interested, they are in the “new art” section of my website.
Some Highlights of the last week…

Goodflyer.de has agreed to be our sponsor for printing, so we will be using them (thanks Christian) for all of our flyers, posters, banners and so on.
Meinestadt.de will be helping to publicise and advertise the show.
Toytown Germany are helping us to spread the word
Bavaria Satellite, thanks geoff for all your help and support.
Flyer design finished and will be sent to print this week.
The Support our evolution campaign. Exhibitions cost money, especially if we want to do it properly, so I am starting an online campaign to raise the money we need for advertising, framing and catering. The idea is to ask people to donate a couple of euros to the cause with paypal. Everyone who makes a donation gets invites to the sponsor night, the opening night, their name on the sponsors list at the exhibition and the chance to win one of my paintings I will put all donors names in a hat on the opening night and the first name out the hat wins a big pastel drawing worth 485€.
The video interview for trying to attract TV companies is in editing, and should be out next week on YouTube and on the website
The exhibition will have a live webcam so everyone can see the proceedings as they happen.
We are being twittered about and are getting a bit of international interest.
That’s all for now, I’m sure I’ve forgotten something, but will send you another update next week
Cheers, and thanks everyone for all your support.
Please keep spreading the word.
Derek
