Exciting News, 3 days and 13% to go for UK Cityscapes

It's Wednesday and it's very early, well at the time of writing this it's before 8am which classifies the time as early for me, if you know me well you'll know I am not a fan of mornings!

So here's the up to date stats for the UK Cityscapes Project


There are 2 days, 12 hours and 10 minutes (at the time of writing) to go in the first phase which is the funding phase

I am £332 away from my funding target, that's only 13% or 3 business investors or 2 canvases + a book or 11 books or 1 complete collection of 69 prints + 2 books

I have been to 11 cities, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Newcastle, Durham, Sunderland, Carlisle, Liverpool, Sterling, Dundee, Perth and York.

Favourite cities so far, Newcastle (obviously) and Liverpool

Least Favourite City, Dundee, mostly due to the people, although I'm sure there are truly lovely people in Dundee the ones I came across were not.

I'll keep todays blog fairly short and to the point, here's what I'd love you to do, if you haven't pre-ordered a book or got yourself a canvas, print or even got your name in the book then do it now before it's too late, if you back the project it means you are part of the project and you can say that you helped the creation of the UK Cityscapes project and book.

Also, people are voting for their least favourite city of the UK on my Facebook page, go and place your vote to send me to Wolverhampton, Birmingham, Coventry, Stoke on Trent, Sheffield or Bradford and that's where I'll be going next week.

and I couldn't leave you without posting an image so here's something lovely from City 2/69 - Liverpool and it's intricately weaved landscape from 400 ft above.
