“JANETTE KERR & CAROLYNDA MACDONALD Exhibitions
Janette Kerr is based between her studios in Shetland and Somerset and is known for her large canvases which capture the latent power of the sea. We have eighteen of these in the exhibition and a catalogue to celebrate the work.
There is a beauty in Carolynda Macdonald's work, not just in the quiet healing places that her paintings take us, but in the paint itself. She doesn't produce many works and this is a rare chance to see some in the UK. We have produced a small catalogue to celebrate these works.

CAROLYNDA MACDONALD
Hidden Gardens
19th - 17th May
We are very pleased to share with you CAROLYNDA MACDONALD's latest exhibition 'Hidden Gardens.' In these fourteen works, Macdonald shows us some of the doors that can be opened and the places we can visit through a virtuoso of paint.
Carolynda Macdonald trained as a microbiologist. In the late 1990s Macdonald gave this up to pursue an artistic career that has taken her work to shows and collections in the UK, USA and beyond.
JANETTE KERR
Surge - into the sea
19th - 17th May
JANETTE KERR paints the sea in its wildest moments, when it fizzes and foams with the energy of a wrathful god - a god who is so beautiful it is hard not to stare at her. It is not surprising that Kerr has been described as one of the best living painters of the sea.
We are excited to share with you twenty of her latest canvases in the exhibition Surge - into the sea.
