Art Exhibition: All Things Bright by Elaine Wilson

As a student I was always encouraged to work from first hand sources and this has never left me, my sketch book is a source of inspiration and experimentation.

The inspiration for many of the pieces in this exhibition arose from the early days of the first covid lockdown where we were limited to an hour of exercise, the daily walk! I was living in a very urban area with limited access to nature, however, I discovered a small patch of woodland nearby. As the weeks passed I observed the variety of wild flowers that sprang up. It gave me a sense of hope that as nature prevailed that indeed we would get through this time and life would return to normal.
