This exhibition showcases and celebrates the achievements of the Land of Oak & Iron Wednesday painting course, based here at the Heritage Centre. This is their 4th annual exhibition in our Inside Out Gallery.
The Wednesday Acrylic Landscape Painting Course has been led by local artist, Katherine Rodger since 2021 and is now a regular weekly activity, open to everyone from the complete novice to the experienced painter.
All the paintings you see here in the exhibition have been produced by amateur painters, many of whom had never tried acrylic painting before, while others have become more accomplished through the course and own practice.
Encouraging participants to find their own style and develop techniques which suit their own artistic individuality has been a key aim of the sessions. Friendship and mutual support have made them so much more than a mindful activity for a weekday afternoon. If you would like to come along to one of our courses, please look for the listings on our event pages.
This year’s artists are Marian Shilston, Norman Lowes, Heather Stone, Neil Radbourne, Laura Frederiksen, Bob James, Sammy Dunworth, Michelle Davidson and Sue Hill.
“We hope you enjoy viewing a selection of the art group’s paintings as much as we’ve all enjoyed producing them.”
The art exhibition is visible from our Courtyard to the rear of the Heritage Centre in our ‘Inside Out Gallery’. All original artworks are available to purchase at very affordable prices – please speak to a member of our team.
