Foss Fine Art is celebrating the great British landscape this May with a show by 5 artists – each bringing their own instinctive interpretations. Whether it’s Nicholas Turner RWA shimmering pointillist images, impressionistic but in a contemporary style combine the rural and urban; or Michael Bennett whose emblematic solitary trees stand in unique orchestrations of weather and light – providing a peculiar illusion of passing seasons, as well as Louise Balaam whose emotional response to the natural world emphasises the quality of light and mood of her landscapes. In contrast there is Catherine Hyde, whose beguiling work is inspired by ancient Celtic myths relating to nature and fertility and Norman Miller whose daily walks on Hampstead Heath has inspired lyrical Spenceresque scenes.
