David Bray has a one man show on at the Ben Oakley Gallery Greenwich of new work entitled Far Out is Not Far Enough. I went along to the private view on Thursday night.
The gallery was packed with people including the artist himself who was surrounded for most the night with people wanting to chat to him. And so they should, his work is detailed and beautifully drawn with some unexpected quirks hidden among the doe eyed girls and woodland creatures.
After a while of being there I was handed a small white paper bag that had a funny little red drawing on it of a character that is in a few of his drawings, inside the bag was a liquorice pipe. Some of the work is on card, paper, blackboard, metal and ends of old book covers that have been removed from the book.
I loved all the work and will be making a trip back to the gallery for another look and to collect the print I bought.
the show is on until the 29th April 2012.
