Commences Mon 19th Aug until Mon 16th September
This exhibition brings the coastal colours, summer joy, connection to the Island and calm 'stand and stare' moments to life. Experience the Island's special brand of calm through coastal views and inviting, shimmering wave and water studies...
Featured Artists :
Feel the vibrancy and excitement of the sailing regattas and Round the Island Race with Sue Stitt's evocative collection of limited edition images. Travel posters for the discerning contemporary traveller and Island lover. Be inspired... and discover parts of the Island you haven't explored yet. A print can be tweaked to add a personal element such as a yacht, suit of sails and their number, making people on a boat look like you, your crew etc. Please ask for information : )
Angela Sowden's beautiful new works of water and wave viewed from the cliffs above bring a new perspective to her work. The water and waves look so real they could flow off the canvas. Add a pop of gorgeous blues and turquoises to your home and invoke the calm of the beach... Queen of expansive beach and coastal views, Angela's work is a popular choice to finish a room or bring back Island memories. Commissions Accepted.
Andrew Hird is a firm favourite in the Gallery. He captures Seaview all year round in its different seasonal gowns. He also paints London, Venice, the South of France and any where he goes... His colour palette and descriptive brush stroke are hard to beat for accuracy, connection and recording the essence of a place in that moment. He enjoys painting en plein air but also works up big versions of studies and sketches in his studio. Commissions Accepted.
Kate Richardson's vibrant energy filled work lights up any room it is hung in. Usually but not always showing the Mermaids - a fleet of which sail out of Seaview Yacht Club - with 13 different coloured hulls flying exuberantly across the Solent or round the Island. Recently Kate has also been exploring the warm, calm, glass like seas with Yachts cruising rather than racing. Kate will work to commission but can also tweak an existing piece for you. Changing a sky line colour or adding flashes of colour to the sea as reflections or sky - for instance - if you need these additions to suit your decor. We want your home to look at its best and your painting to be exactly what you were looking for as the crowning glory of your room. Please ask for more info : ) Commissions Accepted.
There will also be a selection of works by additional artists - plenty to see and a good amount of works to choose from if you are searching for the perfect piece...: ) A few examples are below...
