Irene Leach, Judith Jewer and Janice Brown

Janice Brown's work is vibrant, and eye catching. "I love the play of light and dark and use this in my work. I also like movement in my paintings or the illusion of movement. While I paint in Oils, Acrylics and Watercolours this show will consist of Oils and Acrylics. All of my pieces show life happening and I paint from the heart as I see life."

Judith Jewer loves the experience of painting, especially painting outside and finds that nature awakens in her a sense of heightened joy in being. "I especially love to create beauty through shapes and textures. I love bright colours and developing a sense of the quality light and spatial depth in my paintings. My style utilizes the full range of acrylic painting techniques from textures to glazes."

Irene Leach paints with wild, loud, vibrant, over the top colours. "I try to create realistic scenes that show life as being bigger than it is. My inspiration is my grandchildren, and that is where the whimsy comes in because I am creating paintings that would appeal to the children."
