Spring has sprung and as we all welcome the longer days and warmer weather we are delighted to announce the dates of our summer exhibition.
June is traditionally the month when English roses are in full bloom, so it seemed appropriate to feature this bountiful oil painting titled ‘Roses from the South’. Artist Mary-Jane remembers taking ballet lessons in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe, aged seven and wearing a very pale pink tutu, as she danced a solo performance to the lyrical waltz of this name by Johann Strauss. “Whenever I paint roses I hear this tune in my head….they always dance for me” she reminisces. Mary-Jane is a talented and classically-trained artist, who has seven new paintings on this exhibition and they can all be viewed here.
Do make a note of the dates and please forward this email to anyone you think will appreciate what we show but does not yet know of us.
New work is constantly being added to the website, so remember to keep an eye on what is coming in. Everyone is welcome to go online to www.fillingdon.com at any time and purchase directly from there. We are very happy to pack and post.
