Gerry Dudgeon, Edwina Bridgeman, James Campbell
with
Mary Rich, Guy Royle, Gina Cowen
OPEN until July 17th from Tuesday to Saturday 10.30 - 5.30
GERRY
DUDGEON uses emotive colour to suggest the hot, arid land and ancient
mud-built cities he has recently traversed in Morocco and India. |
|
||
|
He evokes a sense of harmony
between man-made structures and the land, using a palette of earth
pigments as well as the vivid pinks and reds of Rajasthani textiles. |
MARY RICH’S
fine, highly decorated and gilded porcelain collection is a fitting
adjunct to the scene set by his paintings in the main gallery. |
|
|
EDWINA BRIDGEMAN’S
mixed media sculpture makes a welcome return to the gallery. Each
piece incorporates all manner of found materials, used with imagination
and subtlety. A sense of wonder and joy in life emanates from the
delicately painted faces of her wooden figures. ( EDWINA is giving a day’s sculpture Workshoo at the gallery on 17th and 18th July: contact Gilly on 01736 786425 for details and application form. ) |

JAMES CAMPBELL’s
work is imbued with the cool light of Pembrokeshire. Symbolic imagery
and stylized drawing are suggestive of dream places. His palette
of soft greens and greys settles the observer into a contemplative
state of mind. |
 |
||||
|
His ceramics – large stately jars
and dishes - have an architectural quality. The landscape painting
on these harmoniously encompasses the vessel’s form. |

|
GUY ROYLE’s beaten silver and gold bangles,
brooches, earrings and necklaces are much sought after for their
unusual, almost primitive, design and impeccable craftsmanship. The glass cabinet is full of his new work. Prices on application |
|
|
| The sea-glass GINA COWEN collects for her
silver and gold jewellery comes from many far-flung beaches, and as
close as the Scilly Isles, the seeking requiring much dedication. |
|
||||
|
The swan-neck fittings for her earrings are fashioned from silver, muted to a matt finish. |
