CURRENT EXHIBITION AT EDGE
'Urban Myth' by Caroline Yates
Saturday 4th May - Saturday 25th May
Caroline works from photography in oils on canvas, capturing patterns and different forms in crowds and multiples from everyday life. These spontaneous images use colour to manipulate the mood of the crowd, making for a thoughtful and vibrant exhibition.The work consists of several layers of oil paint over a watercolour drawing or coloured ground, and finally transparent coloured glazes.
Lovelys are looking for contemporary and traditional artists to submit artwork for the Open Art Exhibition 2013. Submissions for this exhibition are open to the following categories – original paintings, mixed media, sculpture, ceramics, photography, glass and printmaking (linocuts, woods cuts, etchings, screen prints etc.).
Our extensive range of art materials, art workshops
and unique cards and gifts makes Lovelys the perfect place to immerse
yourself in art for a relaxing hour or two!
