Exhibition open 9am-5pm, Tuesday-Saturday at Dolphin Art Gallery 23-24 Market Place, Wantage, OX12 8AE.
Wednesday 26 August to Wednesday 16 September 2020

Twelve artists are presenting a vibrant showcase of work for Oxfordshire Artweeks in the newly refurbished seventeenth-century Dolphin Art Wantage (rescheduled from May because of the coronavirus pandemic).

Pieces ranging from local landscapes to the abstract in paint, ceramics, leather and other media.

Artists Laurie Bath, Jamie Clayton, Natalie Day, Lilla Fludra, Karen French, Kamal Lathar, Geoff Lawson, Jo Marshall, Debbie Martin, Christine Purdy, Michelle Wallington and Jane Vaux present gorgeous green Oxfordshire views, from the ethereal to the cubist; and Cornish seascapes in striking blues to evoke memories of summer afternoons by the coast, with sweeping horizons with texture and depth.

Alongside majestic dramatic skies, characterful animals team realism with personality and photographic compositions present brightly coloured horticultural intricacy through vivid pinks and violets with a light-hearted touch.
