Images from his school days onwards are included with other artists in over 30 art books written by a range of authors, and he has been commissioned to write numerous magazine articles about his art work. Poems are in  over 20 mixed anthologies.  Among his biographical dictionary inclusions are: ‘The Handbook of Modern British Painters & Printmakers 1900 - 1990’  &  ‘Dictionary of Artists In Britain Since 1945’.   He would like to ask if there is anyone “out there” to help the next stages of his career to happen ?  This includes  reaching a wider audience via prestigious exhibition & book projects, with television coverage. He has been working on a  book about his art work,  he feels that he could make a worthwhile contribution to major thematic group shows,  but mostly, he seeks opportunities to shift the balance from teaching to “doing”. This includes  “artist in residencies”,  in-situ-commissions (see listed themes), and studio research time in sympathetic art colleges/museums etc, where progress with his art work would be in everyone’s interests. He would welcome the opportunity to complete long-term projects in progress, and the prospect of new works via new horizons. He would be happy to discuss any mutually beneficial  ideas.      FOR MORE INFORMATION & IMAGES:  See “Members”  www.rbsa.org.uk   “Senior Members” www.royalsocietyofbritishartists.org.uk   "artists" www.mallgalleries.org.uk www.birminghamprintmakers.org  www.bmpastelsociety.co.uk   Or write to  paulbartlettrbsa@btinternet.com
