Ann paints the land, sea and sky and is returning to Gallery 2 at The Horsebridge Centre, Whitstable with a solo exhibition celebrating the magic of the ocean. Wednesday 10th April 2024 to Monday 22nd April 2024. 9am – 5pm Monday to Saturday, 10am – 4pm Sunday and closed Tuesdays.

There is something magical about the ocean. The constant movement and change, with rolling waves and rise and fall of the daily tides, the sound of the ocean, the smell of the water. Ann paints the land, sea and sky in oils on both large and small canvases, focussing on the state of the tide and weathers at various times of day and year, inspired by painting on the beach, sketches, photos and just being there. Ann draws her inspiration from the coasts of Kent and Cornwall; many paintings are inspired by the beaches in Whitstable.
