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. ____________________________________________________ Michael Smith A Portrait of the Community
A collection of oil paintings exploring a cross-section of people from the local community. A sort of sociological enquiry with an interest in the modern diversities, interactions and communication of today's community. ____________________________________________________
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. ____________________________________________________ Colour Girls (Olivia Neish, Wendy Ranade and Cicely Mortimer) Springboard
A 'first' exhibition of lively eclectic paintings from three talented local artists, using colour as a uniting theme. ____________________________________________________
John Fox New and Old
A Northumbrian Digital Artist, Graphic Designer and Photographer, John’s work involves creating Art through photo manipulation, illustration and painting. His images are fundamentally about form, strength and colour revealing the visual eloquence that he sees in all things whether natural or man-made. ____________________________________________________ Ray Rogerson Theatre, Dance and the Curious
Now retired from a long career as retail display manager for John Lewis in
Newcastle I have always painted since my school days. With some time as an assistant tutor in 3D design for the Newcastle College
of Art and Design. ____________________________________________________ David Malcolmson Retrospective
David Malcolmson was born in Scotland in 1941. He has always been drawn to the photography of people, and he has strived to capture something essentially truthful about the individuals before his camera. His natural feeling for others has enabled him to produce images that still resonate with the present generation. The photographs in the present exhibition represent his work in Scotland, London and Italy in the years 1959 to 1975. ____________________________________________________ Christmas at the People's Keith Wigham and local primary school children
Another fabulous exhibition of pantomime wig sculpture, together with an exhibition of art from local primary schools.
