April Artist of the month
We are delighted to have Bob Merchant as our Artist of the month for April.
Bob was keen to start painting again when he retired. This time, he decided to work in acrylic which has become his preferred medium, although he does find that a change to a different one can be liberating. Bob is a member of several local art societies and likes to exhibit with them. He enjoys demonstrating to the public at open studio events and other venues. He is convinced that he doesn’t paint to any style, however, his friends insist they can always recognise his work. His subjects are many and varied, from landscapes and buildings, machinery of all types to animals both wild and domestic. He has recently completed several paintings of dogs as commissions.
To see Bob’s work visit the Information Centre throughout April from 9am to 4pm during week days and 9:30am to 1pm on Saturdays.
