Wendy Brooke-Smith is a landscape artist who works in acrylic and oil, and draws her inspiration from the docks, rivers and beaches of East Anglia.  Often with an eye for the overlooked, Wendy’s work explores ideas of contrast and incongruity, particularly the impact of man-made structures in our natural environment.

She says “I must admit to being fascinated by the cranes of Felixstowe, such a dominant landmark in our region and visible from my home near Harwich, and particularly by the drama and scale of the docks, and the unexpected aesthetic qualities of this coastal industry”.

Wendy graduated in Fine Art from University Campus Suffolk in 2008.  The demolition and regeneration of the Ipswich Waterfront was the subject matter for her Degree Show paintings, as well as further commissions for Bidwells Property Consultants and UCS.

Reunion Gallery and Courtyard

Reunion Gallery, Felixstowe

Reunion Gallery is situated in the heart of Felixstowe’s Artist Quarter, at 36 Gainsborough Road. It has been open since May 2002 and provides a light and airy location to view an ever changing selection of artworks.

The Reunion Gallery objective is to provide a locally recognised permanent site where quality artworks from local and regional artists can be professionally presented for public viewing and sale.

The Gallery is run by resident artists Verena Daniels and Pat Todd. You can see their original 3D work in glass and ceramics displayed in the Gallery along with a mixture of jewellery, prints and original pictures. The Gallery holds about 8 exhibitions a year with either a solo artist, or based on a theme that provides a link to the artworks displayed. To enhance your visit why not ask to look round the artists studio, adjacent to the Gallery, that Verena and Pat use to create their original 3D work.

The Gallery is open from Monday to Saturday from 10am to 5pm.
