Selected for the Society of Women Artists' 159th Annual Open Exhibition

My contemporary watercolour, Chapters, has been selected for the Society of Women Artists’ 159th Annual Open Exhibition. The painting is 140 miniature, watercolour studies with expressive mark-making through carbon paper. This work takes you on a journey with your eye darting from chapter to chapter. The simple line giving the viewer just a hint of the journey.  My friend and excellent artist, Steve Geliot’s description of the work: “Beautiful. I love the economic use of line and colour to say so much. It is beautifully calm and unfussy”

The Society of Women Artists (SWA) is a British art body and registered charity, and has had a unique history dedicated to promoting art by women. It was founded as the Society of Female Artists (SFA) in about 1855, offering women artists the opportunity to exhibit and sell their works which they had otherwise been denied. Annual exhibitions have been held in London since 1857. The Society enjoys royal patronage from HRH Princess Michael of Kent.
