Jenny Wheatley Painting Exhibition

March 28, 2011 - PRLog -- The May Open Weekend at the Edenbridge Galleries on 7th & 8th May will see a book launch and exhibition by artist Jenny Wheatley RWS, who lived for many years in Kent, to celebrate the publication of her first book entitled ‘Adventurous Watercolours’. The exhibition will include some of the paintings that appear in the book, as well as a collection of new oils and watercolours.

In the book Jenny discusses idea development and her sources of inspiration including her travels to India and the Far East which influenced her love of glowing colours. Many of the artefacts collected on her travels are used extensively in her pictures. Jenny studied at Farnham College of Art and Design and has since exhibited her works at The Royal Academy, International Contemporary Art Fairs  and at galleries throughout the country.

Followers of the television series ‘Water Colour Challenge’ will remember her lively appearances as one of the judges.

The exhibition and book launch has been arranged by John Robertson Fine Art in conjunction with The Edenbridge Galleries May Open Weekend and takes place on Saturday 7th May between 10.00am and 7.00pm and on Sunday 8th May between 10.00am and 5.00pm.
