Energy and Movement: The Old Bakery Artists

Energy and Movement by the Old Bakery Artists at Rook Lane Arts 20th October - 3rd November.

I'm a bit late getting this post up, however I did enjoy the 2012 exhibition from the Old Bakery Artists. This one had a theme of energy and movement and the wall opposite the entrance had a grid of canvases, one from each artist, focusing on the theme.

Oil Pastel Nude by Carl Johnson

 Carl Johnson's work was one of my favourites in the exhibition. His life studies have a lovely depth and quality to them. He says about his nude studies: "I see these works as individual portraits rather than anonymous life studies. This is not to forget history, myth and shared iconography... But what I try to do with all my work is produce subject-centred comments on real lives."
