Details: The Derwent Gallery specialises in paintings of the Peak District’s varied landscapes of dramatic edges and moorlands, and well-known villages. Professional picture framing service also available.

NEW EXHIBITION
Peak Barns and Farms - Exhibition of watercolour paintings by Sheffield artist, Hazel Lale at the Derwent Gallery, Main Road, Grindleford from 5th July to 17th August.

Painting in watercolour Hazel Lale brings her reaction to the natural and man made shapes within the Derbyshire landscape. Influenced by the simplicity of line and the minimal brush strokes of Japanese Art, and the American artist Mary Cassatt, who with Monet and the Impressionists are so noted for their treatment of light and tone, Hazel focuses on intensifying local colour and experimenting with form through negative space and line.

Open: 10am to 5.30pm Tues to Sat and 10am to 4pm Sunday

All are displayed in a spacious, well-lit area alongside ceramics, sculpture and glass.
