Come and see this collection of original paintings at The Corsham Gallery this April 2nd - 16th in the main High Street window. This will be the first time this collection, created over two and half years, will be shown in its entirety.
Visit on Saturday 5th April between 12 noon - 2 pm to meet me in person and learn more about my process and the all important inspirations behind the paintings. There may even be some bubbly and nibbles to enjoy!
On 10th April 1912, RMS Titanic set sail from Southampton's White Star Dock on her maiden voyage to New York. My Great Great Uncle Ernest Portage Tomlin boarded Titanic at Southampton. He was returning to Drake University, Des Moines to continue his studies in Theology. His body was recovered from the ocean by the Halifax Cable ship Mackay Bennett on 15th April and later buried at sea.
This collection of original abstract paintings is inspired by Ernest's story, the stories of other passengers and crew, and that of the "unsinkable" ship. Here you will discover paintings with texture and light all of which were created at my studio in Chippenham, Wiltshire.
