Wendy Steel Exhibition
We are currently running an exhibition for a local artist Wendy Steel. Who’s inspiration is ‘feelings’, she starts with a feeling and then paints with instinctual freedom. The resulting art work is of an expressionist abstract with familiarity in some detail and a pleasing colour palet.
11:11 Ulverston Art House remembers.
A dedicated exhibition to remember those who sacrificed everything to provide liberty.
A group of diverse artists and photographers have assembled some thought provoking images on the theme of war and remembering the cost of conflict.
It is a time to embrace the significance of history as we look to the future.
Let us not march blindly into the night.
November 11th
Artist & Young Artist of the month October
This month we are featuring the works of Teresa Teran and Aidan Fort.
Opening times are Thursday to Saturday 10am – 5pm.
We also have a selection of ceramics from Tarnside Ceramics and contributions from Sheila Gayle and Susan Bently.
Artist of the month
Ulverston Art House is casting the net for local talent.
Our panel will appraise works for approval and then if selected we go to work on all of the elements involved in putting together an exhibit where you will be the star attraction.
We provide curation with the finest attention to detail backed up with a media campaign across a wide spectrum of platforms to draw attention.
All works must be of high quality and suitably framed. If there are any rejection issues we will advise on possible solutions for the future.
We are a very friendly and approachable team committed to promoting arts locally.
Get in touch, there is really nothing to lose and everything to gain.
Young Artist of the month
In tandem to the artist of the month we are also running a search for young artists up to the age of 18. There is no minimum age and we hope to be inspired by young people who are showing signs of exceptional talent.
The future will be shaped by new visionaries who pick up a brush and begin painting, drawing, thinking and creating with hearts content.
This week’s Exhibition
All About Us.
We return this week to our own works as four resident artists, while also show casing local artists.
Our local artists for this exhibition includes Susan Bentley an amazing talent who captures wildlife with a charm and paints with a graceful elegance which is an absolute delight to see. Her works alone are well worth a visit.
Sheila Gayle is exhibiting her new series of paintings titled ‘Northern Nan’s’, which portray the intrinsic characteristics of three familiar ladies.
We have retained two significant paintings from Christopher Stones exhibition for a limited time to give people an opportunity to see seminal works of a local master. Truly an honour.
