Sadly, due to the pandemic we didn't see Ted with his wonderful Morris Minor promoting his gallery and launching the popular Isle of Ely Arts Festival 2020. However, you can still see Ted’s family paintings by taking the virtual tour from his website. At the cost of 99p, with all proceeds going to NHS Charities Together, you get to experience four of Ted’s paintings, in a nine minute film. In the virtual tour Ted appears ‘flying’ back in time in his Morris to 1930s Hollywood, to explain about one of his paintings entitled ‘Dear Reginald Owen’.
