Website for “A Realist Exhibition” goes live

admin — Sat, 24 Oct 2009 15:54:01 +0000

The website for the Folkestone exhibition opening on 13th November is now live at:

www.arealistexhibition.com

The exhibition will run for two weeks and feature new work from internationally exhibited artists Charlotte Harris and Leigh Mulley.

“Whether in my portraiture or still life work I aim to make the subject come alive to the viewer. Through colour, texture and composition I like to draw attention to and give a platform for the different qualities of objects. I am particularly fascinated by fabric and its many characteristics and nuances, a subject I explore extensively in this exhibition. Also reflected in the work on show is my love of painting glass, vegetables, traditional games such as marbles and dominoes, and portraits.”

Portrait of Brenda Billington

admin — Fri, 15 May 2009 21:08:32 +0000

Brenda Billington is the outgoing President of the Royal College of Opthalmologists, having held the position since May 2006. The painting was commissioned to hang in the Boardroom of the College in London. In this painting I wanted her determination to show through, as well as her caring nature.

The first in a new series of still life work, ‘Bundle I’ returns to my interest in material and the use of strong lighting.
