Out of the Blue is showing work by Deborah Crofts and Sally Higgs. Using the sky, clouds and sometimes the sea as a starting point, the result was often surprising. From torrential rain to sudden blue sky, both artists found freedom for their personal expression in these typically British minute-by-minute changes in the weather. Deborah’s paintings are about fleeting moments and a response to the light, colours and shapes created by cloud formations and wave patterns. Sally’s paintings are influenced by new beginnings: a new life and a new journey. Often using the sunrise or sunset, she is fascinated with looking out at the sky. She has discovered that the colours of the weather often even seem to reflect her mood when she is painting. In addition to paintings, visitors will also be able to experience a joint installation using projected imagery that they describe as a reflective piece relating to time and tide. Members of the public are also invited to drop-in and take part in their own artistic responses. For a small cost of £1 blank postcards, art materials and the artists expertise will be provided along with the opportunity to exhibit their creations at the exhibition plus the additional option of having them posted to their home address at the end of the show.
