Jean Jones - Across the Plym

SOLACE OF PLACE - Exhibition of Paintings by Jean Jones

The Brownston Gallery is delighted to once again show works by the late Dartmoor painter, Jean Jones.

Married to John Jones, an Oxford Don, Jean loved to escape the pressures of academic life by spending as much time as possible at Yellands, their hideaway cottage on the edge of Dartmoor.

Julie Ellis - Velvet Vista

Exhibition by Julie Ellis - Chasing the Light

My work is all about the light. I love experimenting with dark and shade and seeing where each painting takes me. I feel this new collection has a light - almost summery - feel to it which I have really enjoyed creating.

Not only has she completed her Masters Degree at the University of Plymouth but she has also continued to create and produce a fantastic body of work to present to the public.

Buttercups at Ide by Joe Webster

Marks of Nature Exhibition

Our first Exhibition of the year brings together three very different artists from the south west, John Grice , Joe Webster and Ellie Verrecchia , who each have a true love of the natural world which they celebrate in their paintings. Their landscapes and seascapes of the local coastline and countryside are exceptional. John has produced some fantastic new work. Joe likes to mix things up with a bit of street art giving an edge to his paintings, and Ellie's gentle works on paper are breathtakingly beautiful.
