5 Artists Exhibition

A bit of a late post but thought it worth blogging!!

This was a collaborative exhibition featuring works by 

Wendy Baker, Norman Cockett, Beccy May, Maureen McCubbin and Sue Whittingham. 

It is my pleasure to know all of these five artists having met them 

through Orkney UHI, where they also met each other. 

A year on from their first exhibition they have come together once more

 to show some of their more recent works which include drawing, 

photography, collograph and sculpture. 

Wendy Baker

Photography

Top L-`Shore Reflection`        R-`Pier Reflection`
Bottom-`Stone Texture and Shadows`

These were beautiful B&W images of Stromness stone piers.

 Norman Cockett

Charcoal

L-`My Last Sketch of Micheal`           R-`Figure Drawing ll`

The portrait of Micheal was drawn several months before he pasted away 

and was a poignant tribute to this colourful but troubled character.

Beccy May

Monoprint, collograph & photogram

    L-`Night, Pool, Rock, Sky`    C-`Creeling l&ll`     R-`Seaglass l,ll,lll`     

Various aspects relating to the sea were gorgeously captured

in these prints.

Maureen McCubbin

Photography, drawing & sculpture

    L-`Time Passes l&ll`     C-`Times passes lll`     R-`Sketch l,ll,lll&lV`  

The pencil portraits looked very relaxed with simple, natural lines and shading.

Sue Whittingham
Pastel & photography

`St Magnus Cathedral Triptych`

These three pastels illustrated the wonderful textures and colour 

of the cathedrals internal stone work.

`Shades of Home ll`

What I like about this image is the reflection of the houses on the galleries window 

giving another dimension to the photograph inside.

The Northlight Gallery is a lovely wee place to exhibit and the
installation from these 5 artists worked really well here!
I`ll look forward to next years exhibition!?!
