Experience the brilliance of watercolours which delight the eye and challenge the mind. This exhibition features a retrospective of paintings by Olwen Jones RWS. Olwen is inspired by botanical gardens and glass houses which she uses to create bold yet calm and tranquil works. Take this opportunity to adorn your home with a beautiful original painting.
The Members of the Royal Watercolour Society are deeply influenced by the places that they have lived and worked, the people in their lives and the cultures in which they are surrounded. Painting wrests out of life an essence of experience, memory, thought, and feeling. An unpredictable and unique medium, watercolour lends itself to all kinds of interesting effects that represent the many different inspirations of the Societies Members.
The Royal Watercolour Society (RWS) at Bankside Gallery is the premier centre for excellence for the art of watercolour. The Society aims to encourage innovation in, and raise the profile of, this quintessentially English medium. All works will be for sale.
