Currently exhibiting in Room 103, a tribute to George Orwell at the Saul Hay Gallery, Manchester until 11th November.

Forthcoming solo exhibition, 'Memoryscapes', at Otley Courthouse from Sunday 4th November to Saturday 3rd December. 

Personal encounters and places at the end of land are the starting point for many of the paintings, they form  an emotive memory or a feeling that has a strong resonance and doesn’t go away. The painting process leads to new ideas and shows you connections that you hadn’t realised were there before.

Alan's paintings are held in numerous private collections in the UK and internationally. He is a director at Leeds Sculpture Workshop, a co-curator for Gallery 16, a pop up gallery and a visiting lecturer at the University of Leeds.
