Since becoming a full time artist over twenty years ago Roy Freer's work has shown a single minded focus in using overlays of rich colour to depict still life, figure and landscape as a way of presenting a visual understanding of his subject. Working from a familiar selection of either studio based still life objects, or outdoor features he continues to explore the tension held both within and between objects to a degree whereby they are held by the fulcrum of the painting. Throughout his career Roy Freer has gained a number of prestigious awards and his work is held in many public and private collections. He is a member of the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolours (RI), the Royal Institute of Oil Painters (ROI) and the New English Art Club (NEAC). The exhibition continues until 8th February. Opening hours Monday-Friday 9.30am-4pm Saturday 9.am-12.15pm (closed Saturday 28th January)
