Current Exhibition
'The Simple Life' - Our very special Lucy Almey Bird exhibition starts today and features fifteen beautiful new paintings!
Lucy was always encouraged to draw and paint from an early age and was taken on regular trips to galleries and museums, which ignited her passion for art.
She paints mostly in acrylics and takes inspiration from everyday life - especially her three daughters.
Each painting is filled with incredible warmth and exquisite detail - always guaranteed to raise a smile!
New Exhibitor - Adele Riley
We're thrilled to be showing Adele's work this year! Her gorgeous paintings are an incredible addition to the gallery and we are so excited to share them with you.
Adele works primarily in acrylic and acrylic inks and often starts her paintings 'plein air', sometimes in local forests or on the beaches of Cornwall and Devon, but her passion is to paint intuitively, recalling the light, atmosphere, sounds and feel of a scene.
"My aim is to capture the essence of a place rather than produce a literal interpretation. I want to create a personal and emotional narrative between my work and the viewer."
New Paintings by Tamara Williams
Tamara originally studied Graphic Design at Kingston and spent 30 years running her own design agency in London before revisiting the printmaking and painting she so loved at art college; experimenting with different textures and mark-making by working directly onto plaster, wood and natural materials.
Her design background informs and influences each piece, from a love of composition and visual space to the energy and freedom of abstract line work.
New Paintings by Lucy Davies
We have a wonderful new collection of Lucy's paintings, including a stunning still life, pictured here.
Lucy trained at St Martins and Brighton and has a BA (Hons) in graphic design, specialising in illustration. She paints full time, either at her studio in London or in North Cornwall where she spends her summers.
A keen walker, Lucy will always take her camera and sketchbook with her on trips to record new images so she has plenty of inspiration in the cold winter months when she’s tucked away in her studio.
Ceramic Sculpture by John Maltby
John was an exhibitor here at Mid Cornwall Galleries for over thirty years and is sorely missed.
From time to time a small number of pieces will be available for purchase. They are sourced from private collections, including the gallery's and span many years, from the 1980s to 2019.
New Paintings by Amanda Hoskin
Landscapes, seascapes and still lifes - we've a fantastic new collection for 2025.
Amanda has been an exhibitor here for nearly three decades and we never cease to be amazed by her immense talent!
The oil painting pictured here is one our favourites from the new collection - 'Autumn Settles Over the Moors'
