Exhibition – Along the Shoreline
1 June to 3 July 2010
Oil Paintings by John Nichol featuring views of the local shoreline
Reunion Gallery’s current exhibition showcases the work of John Nichol for the second time. For this exhibition he has created a set of pictures depicting everyday sights that can be seen along the shorelines of the local area. This has allowed John to indulge in his love of recreating sea and sky, framed by that fantastic light that can usually be seen by those lucky to be out and about along this coastline.
John was born in Cornwall and educated in the city of London. He then sailed the world in the Merchant Navy before returning to the UK to study art and graduated from Epsom & Ewell School of Art with a First in Fine Art.
He has exhibited successfully in London and the Home Counties as well as producing paintings for high profile patrons including the BBC (for use in their drama productions). Before painting full time he worked as a resident artist in a number of organizations and was involved in restoration, decorative designs and mural paintings for them.
Verena Daniels, Reunion Gallery’s co owner says “It is great to have John create this new body of work for us. We know that he has many admirers within the regular clientele of the Gallery and we are sure that no one will go away disappointed after viewing these pictures”
Examples of his work for the exhibition will also be shown in the upstairs restaurant of Bonnet Café and Chocolaterie.
We would also recommend that regular customers pop in and see us now our refurbishment is complete and perhaps stay for a ‘Coffee in the Courtyard’ that can be enjoyed in our new covered area if desired.
