New artist: Ray Richardson

Q.Which film did Ray Richardson watch on the train journey to Newcastle?
A. Get Carter

It had to be done and all good preparation for a scouting mission to the North East. We were delighted that Ray made the effort to visit either side of his wedding party in Carnoustie. A walking tour of the sights was taken prior to starting any serious stone work and we paused for the first play-off leg for Ray's beloved Charlton Athletic. It was only the briefest of visits but a start was made on three images, two direct to stone and one a transfer drawn in Gateshead. Plans are a foot for a return (longer) visit at the end of July.
