Val and Ian Anderson
Scene Different
 
Paintings in contrasting styles by Val and Ian Anderson
Val loves painting any subject but her real interest lies in
nature, and the way sunlight plays on trees and foliage creating beautiful
shadows. It is the light and dark in her pictures that fascinates her,
and the difference the changing seasons and sunlight make to the colours. The
challenge to recreate nature her way is irresistible.
Ian has developed his own style which consists of bold
shapes and angles and bright contrasting colours, embracing realism, a touch
of fantasy and always artistic licence, and contrasts greatly with Val's more
traditional watercolours.

Favourite Places
 
Anke is Dutch and has been painting for more than 25 years and during that
time she has studied painting in Australia, the Netherlands and England. She
usually paints in watercolour or pastel and is very much influenced by the
feeling and atmosphere of the places she visits and she captures this in her
paintings.

North Tyneside Art Studio
Heads of Grey Matter
Retrospective & New Works
 
Heads of Grey Matter is a collection of 5 foot by 6 foot paintings produced
by artists working at North Tyneside Art Studio (NTAS) alongside professional
artist Robert Laycock in 1997 and was first exhibited to great acclaim in The
Bridge exhibition space in Tynemouth Metro Station. This retrospective
exhibition provides the opportunity for the community to once again view 10 of
the original 12 works, mostly self portraits executed in shades of grey,
alongside new pieces created by current Studio members.
Established in 1991, NTAS is a working art studio providing the opportunity for
adults experiencing mental health problems to work alongside professional
artists, building confidence and self esteem through exploring and developing
their creative skills.
