Bridlington Spa Exhibition

 

Background

Currently we have two of our members taking part in the above exhibition - Pat Thompson and Rob Moffat, who along with a third Yorkshire artist Phil Hargreaves are putting on an exhibition of oils, watercolours and prints of coastal scenes and landscapes, both local and worldwide. It runs until 22 February 2014. Original work and prints are available to purchase.

Last week I contacted our local BBC radio station - BBC Radio Humberside - who were good enough to give the event a plug during their peak afternoon show presented by Phil White, who is himself an amateur artist. Phil recently had a piece of his work admitted to this year's Ferens Art Gallery in Hull - quite a prestigious achievement in its own right.


Update

Today Phil revealed on air that over the weekend he had been to the Spa to look at the exhibition and was very impressed indeed with the standard of work on display. So much so that he heartily encouraged anyone in the area before the 22 February to pop along and have a look round. They will not be disappointed.

Great news for Pat and Rob, and for the art group itself to have these two talented artists counted amongst its membership.
