The RA’s Summer Exhibition has been running, uninterrupted, since 1769 and Alastair will be joining the likes of Turner, Constable, Whistler, Lowry plus more modern contemporaries Hockney, Emin and Grayson Perry, in exhibiting his work. The RA has also seen exhibits from one or two famous names such as Winston Churchill and comedian Harry Hill.

The exhibition is open to all artists whose works go through a rigorous screening process by a committee of fellow artists, Royal Academicians.  12,000 entries are reduced in stages to 1,500 exhibits, all of which are for sale, and Alastair has been successful in getting two of his works in the exhibition – an amazing achievement and testament to his talent.

The RA Summer Exhibition runs from 10th June to 12th August.  If you find yourself in London, pop along to the exhibition at Royal Academy, Burlington House, Piccadilly.  You’ll be glad you did.
