'Orkney Held Me Close' Exhibition by Nicki MacRae.Because she's too modest to post it herself... ;) "‘Orkney Held Me Close’ is an exhibition of work created following my stay on Orkney in February 2011. I travelled to study the megalithic remains as part of my ongoing work, painting the ancient places of the UK - however Orkney enchanted me and inspired me into a hugely prolific period and I created a large body of work. I am delighted to have the chance to show a selection of paintings, landscapes and abstracts, at For Arts Sake, Kirkwall." https://www.facebook.com/events/298017696921790/ Also: "9th March - 10th April 2012 'Orkney Held Me Close' an exhibition of landscape and abstract paintings, For Arts Sake Gallery, above the VAO, 6 Bridge Street, Kirkwall, Orkney. Monday to Friday 10am – 4pm, Saturday 10am – 2pm." http://www.nicki-paints.co.uk/ Looks fab. I'd be there like a shot if it were at all possible... :) G x |

You are too kind Goff' - thank you for sharing! It is mainly megalithic stuff, with a few abstracts thrown in. Some are ones people will have seen here, and some are new :-) I'm SO pleased to be finally able to show my Orkney work in *Orkney*... |

"You are too kind Goff' - thank you for sharing!" It's my pleasure! Feel a bit duplicitous to Jane ;) , whose paintings I also adore, but I really do like your work! :) I'm forever envious of anyone with such ability. In a good way. If there is such a thing. :D Hope it all goes well! G x |

I adore Jane's work too! :-D I honestly thing everyone's creative - and a lot of it is letting yourself go, being brave about it, and finding your 'thing' and practicing it. Not everyone's into painting, or fine art of any sort, but everyone's creative. I'm in awe of people who can make clothes, or grow stuff, or knit, or take photography seriously, do beautiful make up, have an intuition with animals, throw pot's, work metal, understand and read the landscape... |
