On show now is our annual summer exhibition. Mary Newman, of the gallery management team says, “The Summer Show increases in popularity each year and the general standard of work improves every time. We are pleased to see some excellent work from new exhibitors as well as from many of our regular contributors.” At the private view and presentation evening, held on Monday 14 July, the Carre Gallery Award and Directors Award were presented by Director Eddy Double. |
The Summer Exhibition
John Lincoln. "Leaves from Eternity"
|
The Lincolnshire Pride Magazine Award winner was selected by our guest judge, artist Michelle Bird, who kindly joined us to make a presentation on the evening. “Having to choose from all the entries was not an easy task, particularly as there is merit to be found in all the works of art. The paintings have been a real delight to look at.” Leaves from Eternity (acrylic) by John Lincoln wins the Lincolnshire Pride Magazine Award. Says Michelle, “I found this painting, inspired by a poem by John Clare, both beautiful and intriguing. I sat for quite some time looking at it. The subtlety of colouring and layering of paint were quite mesmerising.”
