Photographer Fran Groves joins us as a guest artist for April...
We're delighted to have local Photographer Fran on board for the month. here's a little bit more about Fran and what inspires her beautiful work....
In this guest exhibition I present a range of my work looking at structure and shadows alongside the beautiful colours of Pheasant feathers. During the winter months I find I am drawn to objects that I find and putting them together to create something different according to the light and their proximity. The pheasant feathers were taken last year and I had no idea so many patterns existed on any one pheasant.
I exhibit mainly in Weymouth and Portland and am currently exhibiting in the Home exhibition curated by Artwey, a group of local artists.
