Artist of the Month
Oysters and Ink by Kate Elgood
Oysters and Ink by Kate Elgood
We are pleased to announce that we are working in close association with Maná Gallery of
Aylsham. Together, we feature an artist of the month, with work displayed in both venues.
This has proved to be a very successful collaboration. In addition to exhibiting established artists, we have been able to introduce many bright new talents.
For more information on the artists we feature, please follow the link to Maná Gallery below.
This months featured artist is Lesley Munro.
Lesley's work is inspired by her love of open spaces, light, colour and vast skies, and at the outset there is no fixed form in her mind. She uses sketchbook studies and drawings as a starting point for her explorations of composition through material textures, line and colours with each painting undergoing constant change until the balance and harmony of the composition is right.Lesley's work is inspired by her love of open spaces, light, colour and vast skies, and at the outset there is no fixed form in her mind.

Lesley moved to South Norfolk from Scotland 8 years ago and lives in a quiet village where her studio overlooks an expanse of Common.
Originally from Scotland and having gained a BA(Hons) at Duncan of Jordanstone Art College in Dundee, (DJCAD) after spending many years in art education both in Scotland and England she embarked on a full- time career as an artist. I'm an associate member of the East Anglian Group of Marine Artists and The Society of East Anglia Water-colourists - winning the RSW Presidents 2020 award for one of my paintings and in February 2022 the Daniel Smith award for use of colour. Lesley has shown her work in a selection of venues and galleries in East Anglia, St Ives, Wimbledon and The RSW 2023 exhibition at the Mall galleries, London.
