Highlights from the Royal Institute of Oil Painters Annual Exhibition 2010 (Little Wonders)

exhibition Mall Galleries oil on board ROI

This is my final post on the exhibition, this one highlights some little wonderful paintings at the exhibition too. Hope I'm not boring you with this, but I also love to share what I am passionate about- and sometimes it's not only my art but those of other painters!

1. TREVOR CHAMBERLAIN ROI RSMA


Shallow Trees(SOLD)- This is a simple statement, sometimes the simpler the better!



Coppersmith, Kerman, Iran-SOLD- I couldn't believe Trevor did this on the spot, but that's a Master of plein air painting!


Trevor takes delight in placing the red dot on his just SOLD piece!

2. SUE WILLIAMS


"Happy as......" -The title made me laugh, well, I love pigs, and a smiling one added more fun!

3. LUIS MORRIS ROI


Delta-Just watch out for the lost and found edges in this rendition!


Luis with his works


4. LINDA MEANEY


Chinese Pears (SOLD)- She has won the Stanley Grimm Prize, her still life pieces are classical!

5. KEITH MORTON


Silver Chain- I like it when portraiture evokes something in the viewer, this piece just does that, a well handled piece, structure wise!


6. JOHN STILLMAN



This piece won the Frank Herring Easel Award-I love the warmth of the sun on the roof on a cold snowy day.

7. JOHN SHAVE



The picture doesn't do this one justice- it's almost done effortlessly, but that's the beauty of plein air work on this scale.

8. HARRY BRIOCHE



Evening Fanfare- This is an 'explosion' well caught in the atmosphere, very Turner like!
