Canvas and Clay at Art Barn in Warwickshire
The Art Barn in Preston Bagot is ending its exhibition season with Canvas and Clay, a presentation of the work of three different artists, who are connected by their imaginative use of colour and texture.
Among the three are art tutor and vice president of the Birmingham Art Circle, Jan Gay, who enjoys working in rich media such as oil, acrylic and soft pastels. Her bold paintings make powerful use of colour.
