Landmarks : Hilary Buckley

About this event

After three successful solo exhibitions, this will be the fourth exhibition of vibrant paintings by Hilary Buckley, a Lyme-Regis-based artist, who specialises in depicting the local Dorset landscape in her own colourful style. This exhibition is inspired by the colours and patterns of the landscape of Dorset and the Jurassic coast, especially when viewed from above, where you can see the wonderful patchwork and colours of the fields and coastline. Hilary always enjoyed art at school, but it was not until she moved to Lyme Regis from Berkshire in 2007 that she took up her paint brushes again. She joined local art groups and classes, trying out different media, including watercolours, oil pastels, soft pastels, acrylic, oils and collage. She loves Art Deco, and this has inspired her to paint the varying patterns and shapes of the local landscape in her own graphic style. As well as her original work, there will also be cards, prints and calendars available for sale. The exhibition runs from Friday 28 July until Wednesday 5 August and is open daily from 10am until 5pm. Admission is free of charge.
