The first exhibition of the summer is Chris Steele’s new works; Water, water everywhere Pt2:

The second collection of original watercolours by local artist Chris Steele exploring the theme of destinations by water. This new body of work takes its inspiration directly from the seaside towns of Hastings and St. Leonard’s-on-Sea.
Washes of colour with swift brush strokes seek simply to capture the energy of a scene. Using a loose abstract technique allows the paintings to convey a sense of place through colour and form.
Chris’s show begins on 9th June 2009, and continues until 14th July 2009.
(The exhibition is in the McCarron’s shop and gallery space.)
