Steven Marshall’s paintings largely in enamel paint on panel and Perspex are outward looking people-scapes. In them figures are choreographed in to compositions with no intended narrative, but stories and relationships inevitably emerge from them, created by the viewer as much as by the artist.

Peter Coates The images Peter mostly paints are a result of two influences: his training in graphic design together with the use of vibrant colours typical of the Mediterranean and Provence which he frequently visits. He works mainly in oils and acrylics, sometimes applying several layers of paint, scraping, then applying more paint to produce an enriched depth of colour. Peter works into these layers to enhance texture that reflect the patterns of the landscape. open daily 10:30-4:30. Sou’- Sou’- West Gallery, Manor Yard Symondsbury Estate, Bridport DT6 6HG.
Until August 3
