A VERY SPECIAL THANK YOU

We extend a heartfelt thank you to all of our friends and followers
who have extended their best wishes and help during the past

and our serious illnesses. 

The good news is...we have recovered!

Debby is working on a Facebook professional page so that will be another place to follow my activities.  Watch for those changes in the late summer.  I will continue to work toward my exhibition in 2017.
Several of my paintings have exchanged hands over this past year making a nice profit for the previous owners or due to poor health they were able to easily recoup their expenses. 
Thankful we were able to assist with the connections.
Many of my number 1 Artist Edition prints are now gone.  Just sent  Rhapsody in Blue to China.  My first one, that I know of, that went to China. 
 
We will not be attending THINK PARROTS 2017 this year.  
I am busy working on toward my exhibition in September 2017
We wish them every success!!

I was happy to be invited to exhibit again this year at the Ellesmere College Exhibition 31 May-4 June 2017.   Profits go toward art scholarships so I am pleased to support such a great cause once again.

MAJOR EXHIBITION SCHEDULED FOR SEPTEMBER 2017

FOR BUDGERIGAR LOVERS!

Eric Peake Appointed UK Budgerigar Society

Vice President 2014

 President Elect 2015

President 2016

I will be adding a special section on my website for Budgerigar lovers.  There I will share my many years of experience through informative articles, short stories and tips, along with all my Budgerigar artwork for sale.  I hope to start this section in July 2015.

NUMBER 1 ARTIST EDITION PRINTS

NOW AVAILABLE

My No 1 Artist Edition Prints are now available.  In some cases this is the only one left from all the editions.  These are my private collection I have decided to now make available to collectors of my artwork.  To view please go to the Limited Edition Page, Special Edition section.  Happy viewing. Remember the No 1 Artist Edition is the rarest of all my limited editions so an excellent investment!  Feel free to contact me anytime if you have questions at birdart@ericpeake.co.uk

GREETING CARDS ARE NOW AVAILABLE IN GROUPS AT A SPECIAL PRICE OR INDIVIDUALLY.  CHECK OFTEN AS NEW ONES ARE BEING ADDED EVERY WEEK.

GREETING CARD UPDATE

This section on the website will be expanded as our greeting cards are now so popular.  Instead of ordering in the groups as shown now under Greeting Cards, individual cards will be posted so you can order whatever you prefer.  Watch for this in the next few weeks.  It will take some time to put them all on as there are so many!  Thank you to those collectors of Eric's work who have requested this option.  We are listening to you.

.....Coming soon....

Debby will also be adding more of her Flower/Garden Blank inside cards also available on an individual basis so you can pick and choose your favourites.  Check them out under Greeting Cards.

CHECK OUT MY EXHIBITION PAGE FOR THE UPCOMING
EXHIBITION OF 14 PIECES OF MY ARTWORK at

For those of you who have phoned me or have read the articles in the newspapers about this exhibition:  The Willow Gallery has informed me that my exhibition has new dates:  Exhibition starts Nov 10 and runs through Dec 6.  I hope this hasn't inconvenienced anyone!  I just found out myself on Sunday (yesterday)-when I went to see it and was
 surprised to see it wasn't hung yet!
