Although the subject matter is predominantly of the New Forest, the exhibition will not be exclusively displaying New Forest landscapes. Visitors who admire excellent portraiture, exotic animals and mysterious Celtic mythology should be very pleased with the exhibitions variety of subjects and use of various artistic mediums. e exhibition promises to be a visually exciting experience, there should be something for everyone, entrance is free and purchasers can pay with either cash, cheque or card. It could well be the opportunity to select that special Christmas gi ? e landscape of the New Forest has fascinated artists for centuries, painters such as William Shayer, John Emms, Frederick Golden Short, Heywood Sumner, Lucy Kemp Welch and a host of others have all taken inspiration from the region. As indeedhave these twelve contemporary artists following in the wake of their much respected predecessors. In these times of increasing environmental awareness provoked by the threats created by the industrial exploitation of the natural world, we are fortunate to have this example of ancient wilderness on our door step. An unhurried stroll through the forest in any season can be a calmingly rewarding experience, freely available to everyone, and this exhibition should poignantly enhance that extraordinary natural awareness. Every one is welcome from serious buyers to interested observers. ey will be very pleased to meet you. All the artists are regular exhibitors at the New Forest Gallery and Collectables, High Street, Lyndhurst.
