Ben Southern - Munlochy Bay

Tore Art Gallery is pleased to host Ben Southern’s first solo exhibition.  The exhibition includes many paintings based on various parts of the Black Isle; Ben’s work is expressive and sensitive, beautifully drawn and executed with flowing assertion.

The opening of the exhibition is on Sunday 26 June – Clare, Ian and Ben look forward to seeing you there, refreshments will be served from 2 to 5 p.m.

About the Artist

Ben Southern trained in the early sixties at Burnley School of Art, then at Leeds School of Art. He taught for 30 years in several different schools then worked at St Martin’s College for ten years. He exhibited his work in Yorkshire and Lancashire before retiring to Fortrose on the Black Isle.

“After working almost exclusively in watercolour or acrylic, I am now enjoying the painterly properties of gouache. The Black Isle provides me with endless subject matter in all seasons and weather”

What Else?

Alongside the main exhibition the gallery will show the work of many other artists in a wide variety of media, and new items are always arriving, including a wide range of greetings cards – the latest ones are images by Moy McKay, and new designs from Suzanne Gyseman.
