Lindsay Telling: Turning Tide and the Close of Day
3 October - 30 November 2012
Lindsay Telling is a Bristol-based glass artist. Her passion for glass was inspired by an artist in Fowey and her long love of Cornwall. Her influences to date have come from John Piper and Graham Sutherland and for this current exhibition - Turning Tide and The Close of Day - the pieces have been influenced by the works of Kurt Jackson, Andy Goldsworthy and her own found images of Cornwall.

Julia Adams
29 September- 08 November Long Gallery
Julia's fascination with life drawing started as an 'A' level student under the tuition of John Eaves. She is concerned with intuitive mark-making from observation and the exploration of the visual elements of line, tone and colour. She uses Indian ink applied with sticks and large brushes for washes. This unpredictable technique keeps the drawings loose and free, capturing the effects of light, shade and form.
Still Waters and Revolutions, Abigail McDougall
31 August - 1 October, Cafe Gallery
This exhibition provides a balanced look at the artist's desire to convey beauty, peacefulness and simplicity, as found in the Japanese woodblock prints of the ukiyo-e period, and traditional Chinese brush paintings; alongside subjects of unrest, protest and challenge.
Colour and Texture: Martin Bentham RWA
29 September to 11 October
Continuing to paint directly in front of his subject allows Martin to capture the true range of natural colours, textures and the unusual shapes that occur - so difficult to create from imagination in the studio.
Chance and Choice II, Peter Ford RE RWA
12 September - 2 October
Extremes of scale typify Peter Ford's second exhibition under the title Chance and Choice.
