5. PENLEE HOUSE GALLERY & MUSEUM
Waiting for the Boats (detail) by Walter Langley Born in Birmingham, Walter Langley is known as the ‘pioneer of the Newlyn School’, being the first of the Newlyn School artists to settle in the village. Like many of his fellow Newlyn artists, he spent time in Brittany and Holland before settling in Cornwall. Although Langley was an accomplished painter in oils, he mainly painted in watercolour, often on a large scale.
He portrayed scenes of everyday life in a small fishing village, highlighting the hardships and tragedies that were commonplace. The exhibition, ‘Walter Langley: Painting Between the Tides’, runs until 1st October.
4. CHLOE WOODS ARTIST Misty Morning at Mylor by Chloe Woods
A crisp morning at Mylor Creek, a delicate layer of mist lifted to reveal acid green reflections of the hillside in the water and the sunlight catching the prow of the boat; the inspiration for mixed media painting ‘Misty Morning at Mylor’. Chloe most enjoys capturing the vivid colours and textures of the Cornish coastline. Using an exciting range of mediums (acrylic paint, collage, charcoal and oil pastels), Chloe makes confident marks that will bring the colours of Cornwall into your home. 07803 724 297 | www.chloewoods.co.uk
