This exhibition shows paintings and drawings that are intimate portraits of people and places the artist knows well. She likes to spend a long period of time working in one area, often as long as several years. She says: 'The longer I work in one area, the more pictures I see. If I visit one area for one session only, I simply don't see enough'. She paints friends, family, people closest to her and places she visits all the time.

Open daily from 12.00-18.00.
