I'd like to introduce you to some new friends of mine. They may be a little direct, perhaps they like a bit of a gossip, they certainly have hearts of gold... who are they? The inhabitants of the terraced houses and streets I've been painting for the last two years.

Hot Gossip
Copyright Michelle Milburn 2009.

I've opened the door to a world of big, slightly saucy, gossipy girls, the kind who love their bingo, a good laugh and a cup of tea with cake, but mind out, cos they'll be after you if you cross them! We've all known someone like this, too!

Working in acrylic on canvas, adding an extra bit of detail and a whole lot of enthusiasm, the new series will be launched at exhibition in September and online later this summer in their own gallery (can you imagine the riot they'd cause if they had to share!), a new online exhibition will follow.

I hope you'll join me and the girls for a bit of a knees up!
