James Lynch: Light as Dreams

Overview

In his first solo exhibition at Portland Gallery, James Lynch's delicate egg tempera paintings explore the artist's experiences and memories paragliding and walking through the Wessex countryside, where he lives and works. His atmospheric paintings on panel and paper (created by careful layering of pigments onto various coloured grounds) captures the glow of sunlight and everchanging cloud formations across the land throughout the seasons with a wonderful drama and romantic quality. 

 

Our printed exhibition catalogue includes an introduction by art historian, curator and lecturer David Boyd Haycock, author of A Crisis of Brilliance: Five Young British Artists and the Great War, 2009.
