A new exhibition of the work produced during her residency consists of a variety of landscape paintings inspired by the land owned by the National Trust. There are small oil paintings of Mourier Valley and Devil’s Hole, tree and quarry studies, as well as mixed media large scale work incorporating seedheads. The artist, whose work deals with the relationship between humans and their habitat, continues her themes of Jersey landscape and in particular rock strata, seascapes and tree studies.
Virginia Colback, an art teacher who was the first student to gain an honours degree in art through Highlands College, was awarded the Rivington Scholarship in 2008 and the resulting study trip also influenced her work for the National Trust for Jersey residency.
Venue: The Pressoir Studio, the Elms, St Mary
Price: FREE
Exhibition: From Friday 4th June until Thursday 10th June, 11am to 4pm
