Katie Millard exhibits widely in the East Anglian region and is well known for her expressive and spontaneous watercolours of the wild and unspoilt places of north Norfolk, a coastal region she frequently visits. More recently, she has begun exploring bold elements of abstraction in her work. Katie says: I work very quickly, straight onto thick watercolour paper with only a brush and the flow of the paint to dictate the outcome.

Katie Millard will be at the ARTWORKS exhibition from 10am – 4pm.

Today at ARTWORKS exhibition 2015: Roger Gamble – Painting in Acrylics

Meet the Artist: daily presentations at ARTWORKS 2015

Wednesday 23rd September 2015: Norfolk artist Roger Gamble is back at the ARTWORKS exhibition today, demonstrating acrylic painting techniques. Roger will be in the barn with ‘paintings in progress’ for visitors to see, to talk about art, ideas and inspiration. This is an ideal opportunity to find out more about acrylic paints as a medium, types of canvas, mixing colours, paint brushes, the stages of a painting, painting techniques, paint effects.

Wednesday 23 September 2015: Roger Gamble – Painting in Acrylics!

Roger is well-regarded for his colourful canvas paintings. Recent paintings focus on the landscapes of Norfolk.

Much of my interest nowadays involves the possibilities offered by the strong horizontals and wide spaces of Breckland, the Fens, and the coastlines of Norfolk.
