Our Most Successful Show Ever
Over the spring Bank Holiday the Art Society held its annual art exhibition and this year was our biggest to date with 28 members taking part and with 136 paintings on show. These ranged in size and medium, from small pastels to beautiful watercolours and from stunning acrylics to timeless oils that looked wonderful against the stunning backdrop of the Town Hall.
There were so many positive comments and we would like to thank all those that took the time to visit and especially those that came from far flung places including Australia, America, Canada and Spain - it's truly inspiring to think that Chipping Campden's Art Society members' work will be hanging on walls all over the world.
Special thanks must go to all those that voted for their favourite painting and we would like to congratulate Linda Holdierne on winning the most votes for her stunning piece entitled 'Feeding the ducks.'
We will be back again in October so do come and see us then
