Annual exhibition celebration - all welcome

Join us for the opening celebrations of our resident artist's annual exhibition on 07 May from 18:00-20:00 pm for drinks, nibbles and to talk to the artists themselves

Their exhibition runs from 04 May to 05 June and spans the two weekends of Open Studios Cornwall

The gallery will be open for our usual 12:00-18:00 Wednesday- Saturday, plus two extra sundays on the 29th of May and 5th of June.

Our resident artists Maggie Cochran, Lee Kellgren, Derek Hayes, and Dave Pentin will be exhibiting their latest work. An eclectic mix of paintings and prints, their work is inspired by the landscapes and urban areas where they live and sketch.

Maggie Cochran is a landscape painter who likes to work in a slightly abstracted fashion while still retaining a sense of place. Capturing light and a sense of the fragility and transience of our natural landscape is important to her. She is particularly inspired by the west coast of Cornwall which seems to imbue her work with a rawness that she doesn't achieve anywhere else

Lee Kellgren is a Cornwall-based printmaker specializing in limited-edition etchings and now also working in oil paint.

Derek Hayes is an award-winning animator, currently teaching at Falmouth University, and an artist who likes to wrestle with the lessons of the great masters of Art.

Dave Pentin is a design graduate of Falmouth School of Art, who loves to get his hands dirty experimenting with gum arabic & acrylic inks.
