GILES PENNY

14^th  -  31^st May 2022

Penny's focus of expression is the human form, which acts as a vehicle to explore the interaction between physical and abstract worlds and often portrays an innocent humorous quality. The nature of his figures remains eternally elusive. His paintings are instantly recognisable to anyone familiar with his sculpture. 
In his own words: “I don’t like being limited to just one medium, I work on several pieces at once until something is complete. I am driven by the feeling that my next piece of work will be my finest, but when I reflect on my work over the past forty years I’ve found it’s the idea in conjunction with the making that completes the experience.”

FRANCIS BOWYER / ROBERT E. WELLS

25^th June  -  13^th July 2022

Francis Bowyer Francis says of his work, “Light and colour play an important part in my paintings. The brief moment captured. A richness and enjoyment of colour is always at the heart of the subjects that I am attracted to.” His work includes paintings of children on the beach at Walberswick, Suffolk, interiors of Parisian restaurants and more recently studio interiors.  
Robert E. Wells Many of his landscape paintings are painted ‘en plein air’ and it is in these smaller pieces that he depicts with careful observation the subtle nuances of the changing weather and light on that landscape.
In his compositions of people, in the smaller works in oil on paper, Robert will depict only one or two people. As in his ‘en plein air’ landscape paintings Robert draws out in depth the character and behaviour of the people being observed.
