The Summer Exhibition at The Brownston Gallery

by Brownston Art Gallery | Modbury
Date of event: 04/07/25 - 29/08/25
The Summer Exhibition is showcasing a stunning collection of works by both established and new artists, capturing the vibrant essence of the coastal scenes that define Devon and Cornwall.  From the serene seascapes by Andrew Miller to the abstract impressions of local seaside towns by Michael Hill, the exhibition explores the many moods of our coastline. Ben Lucas offers a powerful new body of work that evokes the raw beauty of North Devon’s wild skies and rugged shores.  

Jo Vollers brings summer to life through expressive brushwork and joyful bursts of colour in her floral and coastal pieces, while newcomer Kate Barker enchants with her playful, mixed-media depictions of the untamed sea.  Another new artist, Lenny Cornforth, shares her oil paintings that depict striking aerial views of some of her favourite local beaches, while Tracy Hamer adds a touch of vintage charm with her bold, retro-inspired paintings of women in swimsuits and sunglasses — full of sun-soaked nostalgia.

This exhibition celebrates a rich diversity of artistic responses to our beloved coastline, each piece echoing the light, colour and energy of summer by the sea.
