The Oxfordshire Artweeks Spring Show
To get you in the mood for the May festival, why not take a look online at the Oxfordshire Artweeks Spring Show, which launches tomorrow (18th of April) and runs until the end of the Artweeks festival (26th May).
Bursting with colour and flair, this on-line seasonal show is packed with a huge variety of art from over 200 local artists, working across different media and styles. It's a joyful and colourful celebration of spring and the world around us, and a wonderful taster of the types of artwork that can be enjoyed throughout the Artweeks festival next month.
I am delighted to have my recent mixed media botanical abstract "Honesty" from my recent "Gentle Reminders" collection featured in the Spring Show. Inspired by the benefits of nature and art for wellbeing and positivity, the honesty plant traditionally symbolises honesty, transparency and truth, as well as integrity and sincerity. This collection is intended to serve as a Gentle Reminder that how we move through life matters.
Take ten minutes out of your busy day to be transported into a vibrant world of local art, Be delighted and surprised by people and places, blossom, birds, boats and buildings. And, if particular piece, or artist, catches your eye then you can explore their work further by visiting their Artist Portfolio and by adding their venue to your list of places to visit in May.
