WHITEFIELD artist Alexander Graham Sinclair is broadening his horizons with a series of new exhibitions.

The 37-year-old was featured in the Guide last year when his work went on display at Prestwich Library.

He has been working hard in his studio on Leicester Road ever since and is now putting the finishing touches to his latest exhibition.

Mr Sinclair's work can be seen at the Barton Arms, Barton Road, Manchester from November 16 to 23 and, appropriately he has named the collection The Barton Charms.

He said: "The exhibition features a mixture of some of my old stuff, some glow in the dark paintings and some new work. Recently I have been working on clocks, so some of that will go in as well."

Born in Scotland, Mr Sinclair moved to Greater Manchester around 14 years ago and settled in Whitefield. Although well-travelled and multi-talented in music and poetry as well as painting, Mr Sinclair has suffered from agoraphobia, a fear of open spaces

The artist will be returning to Prestwich Library with his exhibition next February, but until then his work is on show at the Barton Arms or on the website www.Alexandersinclair.com
