I painted these two paintings as a response to my utterly soul destroying job as a receptionist!
Whilst working behind the reception desk I was inspired to curate a collective exhibition of work about the boring day jobs artists have to do in order to fund their art.
Hence '9 to 5' took place in 2006 with twelve artists from across the UK showing work about their 'work'.
My artistic input was the two portraits of myself and my collegue, also an artist. I turned our dull demoralising job into a kitsch fantasy where we were only too happy to answer the phone and help.
Needless to say, neither of us are receptionists now! To see more about the 9 to 5 exhibition, see the events section.
