I blame the parents! With an economist as a father and a graphic designer as a mother Colin Bailey has managed to avoid galleries most of his life, preferring to sell, market and promote his own work through organising exhibitions and lately this website. Ryepress is also now a “bricks and mortar” gallery and studio.
