Paintings & drawings by Fiona Hayward
15th June - 21st June 2022
Daily 10am - 5pm
Realism is my preferred style of painting and drawing a single wildlife subject, sometimes with an abstract background. My first solo exhibition held in Feb 2020 was a series of artworks I had been working on for over ten years, these were about mankind's relationship with nature & how The Line between Endangered & Extinction is in mankind's control.
Art and wildlife are both important to me and I plan to continue with works that focus on our wildlife's beauty and some of the challenges they face in a changing climate.
I enjoy drawing with standard pencils and painting with acrylic's as well as oils.
