Gillies Glass Solo Show New Glasgow Gallery
Veneer Gallery presents ‘Roots’, the début solo exhibition from artist Peter Gillies
26th April – 24th May, 2013
I am finally doing my debut solo art exhibition in a new gallery in Finnieston called Veneer. It previews this friday (26th april) and runs for 4 weeks. Hope some of you can make it down I have been working hard in preperation for this. Please invite anyone you know that’s interested in art.
I made a little post about what its about… well why its called ‘roots’, its not really about anything its just paintings I have done recently. There is not a particular theme… I have been doing a few blossom pictures recently and have been on a full moon theme too.
That’s about all you get to know 
But for the reasoning behind roots see http://www.gilliesar…-peter-gillies/
