FAREWELL MY FRIENDS - SIGNING OFF.
FOR personal reasons I’m deactivating myself…that may sound like a painful operation, and in a way it is.
While I will remain a member of Redbubble and leave my portfolio and bubblemail intact, I won’t be uploading any more items or commenting for the foreseeable future. I will however, still be taking a look at the work of some of you wonderful artists both for pleasure and inspiration.
I’ve made some very good friends and greatly enjoyed our good humoured exchanges. I’ve learned some valuable lessons and been overwhelmed by the kind words of such generous people. For that I thank one and all and wish you well.
Available for sale asGreeting Cards, Matted Prints, Laminated Prints, Mounted Prints, Canvas Prints, Framed Prints and Posters

I have to admit that it’s becoming an uphill struggle for me too.
Enjoy your ‘semi retirement’ from RB, and best regards.

I reiterate the sentiments of the above. Will miss you, marra. And your excellent comments on my paintings.

All the best.

I’m very sad to hear that Brian, but as long as you keep popping back to say hi, that will be cool. You are and have been the most amazing friend I’ve never met :) I love your sense of humour, sharp wit and that most incredible ability to extract a pun from anywhere, even from the most meagre of linguistic offerings. And, I haven’t even started talking about your art yet! :) Master of the brush, arise Sir Brian and take a bow.

It has been a great pleasure to meet you on RB, Brian! I felt a very good bond with you in the realms of artistic enlightenment and inspiration. I also very much appreciate your work and hate to think we won’t be seeing any new pieces popping up from you. I’ll definitely miss you and hope your reasons for signing off are benign.
Best wishes!!! Les
Barbara Applegate

I feel incredibly sad! This news has come as quite a shock! Brian, you have become one of the most loved among my circle of RB friends and I cannot begin to express my gratitude for some of the wonderful exchanges we have shared, and the guffaws of laughter that have echoed around the area of my computer due to your wonderful sense of humour. I am lost for words! Someone pass the Kleenex!!!!
Chris Willis
Oh Brian…I’m so sorry to see you go….although I have pretty much done the same thing over the past few months. I pop in now and again to see what’s happ’nin’...and was shocked to see your farewell. I have really enjoyed your wonderful talent and cheerful personality. You shall be missed by me and no doubt countless others. All the best for the future, Brian. Warmest regards….Chris
BLYTHPHOTO
The amount of comments this has received will surely tell you how popular you are on Redbubble Brian. Maybe after a little break, you will return – I do hope so.
Biker
Sorry to see you go Brian, for whatever reason it is this online community just lost a talent, but as Blythphoto says above. I hope it’s just a short break.
Take care
terry dunnett

Many thanks my friend. Now that I have more time I am getting down to more painting. I’m sure we both enjoy a great hobby. I’m ust going to take a look at your portfolio,

I hope you check in much as much as possible and share any of your new creations.
Brian Towers replied 26 days ago
Many thanks Michael. I check in every day but have ‘checked out’ putting new stuff on for the time being. Gives me a lot more time to paint. However, I still see great work from my friends on RB, not least your creative art.
