Art Exhibition – A View Of Andalucia

A VIEW OF ANDALUCIA
An Exhibition of Work by José Alarcón
1st – 31st October
 
Naïve art has bold use of colour, awkward relationships between the components of the picture and is the work an untrained artist. José Alarcón is such an artist and his show of naïve painting in the Riogordo Galería is very affordable and collectable. A son of Riogordo he works with oil paint and also enjoys painting on other surfaces. His love of vivid colours and the patterns of the Andalucian campo form the inspiration for his works.
“My painting is my hobby.  I try to capture the beauty and the simplicity of the rural life here in Andalucia.  The people are my friends and my inspiration.  I work with oil paint on board but also I enjoy painting on other surfaces, like the roof tiles.  I love the brilliant colours of the flowers and the patterns of the fields.”

CANVAS, PAPER & SILK
An Exhibition of Work by Dianne Warren

Riogordo Galería.
6th -29th August, 2010

Dianne has had a paint brush in her hand since the age of 5 she says. Her enthusiasm for her art is very evident in her strong use of colour, brush work and the wide variety of mediums.

A long standing member of the Art Society of Traditional Painters in the UK, she came to Spain 5 years ago via North Wales and Dubai. While in Dubai she taught art and pottery to the children of the Royal Family.

“I am captivated by the Andalusian landscape and the intensity of the light and shade,” she said, ” the sunlight and shadows constantly fuel my inspiration.”

For her work she uses oil, watercolour, pastels and acrylics and it encompasses landscapes, flowers, houses. Recently she has added silk painting to her repertoire and has silk cushions and silk paintings on display.

“She is a superb artist with a very strong sense of colour” said gallery owner Ken Church, “and with 25 items on display from small pictures to large canvases this is a very good exhibition to visit.”
