Local artist exhibits at Kerry Vale Vineyard



Kerry Vale Vineyard, situated on the Shropshire/Powys border, is hosting a new exhibition by local artist Penelope Timmis, which runs from November 19 to December 18.

The exhibition includes a combination of what Penelope is known best for: vibrant and contemporary fowl, flowers and landscape paintings. She has a very distinctive style which aims to reflect the life and colour that she sees in all that inspires her.

Her work has been much in demand since her departure from the Froebel Institute, Roehampton. An established painter she exhibits throughout Wales and the West of England.

Penelope won best entry with the Royal Birmingham Society of the Arts (RBSA) in 2009 and was shortlisted for the Daily Mail’s "Not the Turner" prize in 2004. A fellow of the Royal Society Arts, she supports Shelter Cymru and their art auctions and presented an exhibition for the Prince's Trust.

She is an elected Associate of Birmingham Society of the Arts and an associate of the Society of Women Artists.  Penelope’s solo exhibition can be viewed in the gallery above the vineyard’s shop and cafĂ© during opening hours: Tuesday to Sunday, 10am - 3pm.

To launch her exhibition Penelope will be holding a drop-in ‘Meet the artist session’ on Friday, November 18 between 2pm and 3.30pm at the vineyard gallery where she will be available to chat, discuss her work and answer any questions.  Booking for ‘meet the artist’ is not required.
