Exhibitions showing this Autumn ...
Lee HiomExhibition
During November VHL will host an exhibtion featuring the work of local photographer Lee Hiom. Lee has studied, worked and lectured in design & photography and associated crafts for over 40 years. Working initially in Covent Garden at a leading agency he has commissioned, art directed and worked with many of London's renowned commercial/fine art photographers. Lee's simple, painterly style is both classic and contemporary and very much focused on the romanticism of landscape. Obvious influences are the great landscape painters of early periods and a personal interest in pictoralism, the very first photographic art movement. Date: 3 - 28 November |
Cathie LoweExhibition During December VHL will host an exhibtion featuring the the art work of Cathie Lowe. Cathie is well known as the face behind Dragonflies Therapies Natural Health Studio, and the creator of the wonderful Hand Cream stocked in the VHL Shop. Date: 1 - 24 December |
