The Opening of the new Richard Goodall Gallery show with Curtis Jobling. The Frankensteins Cat Art Show and Biteneck Beatnik Halloween. New paintings and prints from the master of animation. 
There will be copies of Curtis' new Frankenstiens Cat DVD and Book and Cutis will be in attendance signing books, prints and more.
There will be special Halloween toys available only at the show.
The designer of worldwide hit children's television show 'Bob the Builder', and the author/illustrator of numerous childrens books (including the acclaimed “Frankenstein’s Cat”), Curtis lives in the sleepy Cheshire idyll that is Warrington. Although best known for his work in film and television, it is Curtis’s widely collected paintings that make him one of the UK’s most exciting and sought after artists.
Having left Cleveland College of Art & Design in Middlesbrough in 1994, he went on to work with Manchester based puppet masters Mackinnon & Saunders on Tim Burton’s Mars Attacks, before moving on to the BAFTA award winning Bob The Builder. More recently he has achieved success with the Mackinnon & Saunders produced animated series of Frankenstein’s Cat, as seen on the BBC, which recently won the Pulcinella Award for Best Childrens Show at Cartoons On The Bay. He continues to work in the region as well as collaborating with studios the world over. 
With such solid successes in the portfolio, Curtis now returns to his earliest love – painting. Galleries on both sides of the Altantic have exhibited Curtis’s picture book artwork and limited edition prints.
Fresh from the success of the animated series comes the premiere of the Frankenstein’s Cat Art Show, featuring paintings based upon actual episodes from the show. In a series of nine paintings (and limited edition prints) we can follow the exploits of the oddest couple in Oddsburg, Nine and Lottie, as they contend with marauding monsters, freaky Frankenpets and bothersome boys.
The Biteneck Beatniks follows the exploits of a gang of freaky deaky kooky spooky cool cat hep cat vampire kids who play in a band fighting evil by the power of Jazz. No, it aint preschool! It’s also in development as an animated series in its own right, Chillville.
Curtis works with acrylics on a variety of materials, including paper, canvas & even roofing felt. Dig it, Daddy-O!
Something for all the family so bring the kids
