Colmer's and Beyond: Marion Taylor

1st August to 14th August

This exhibition will explore how Marion has moved on from her well known acrylic paintings of Colmer’s Hill, where this iconic landmark has previously taken centre stage.  More recently Colmer’s Hill is now incorporated into a painting or collage in a more subtle way, becoming one of the many elements that make up the finished work.

Marion is now exploring collage which gives free rein for her imagination and quirky nature, so visitors can expect Colmer's Hill paintings and illustrations as well as more recent collages and ceramics.

Marion trained as a textile designer: this influence can be readily seen in her work by her use of colour and design, a balance, a lyrical harmony is always what she is striving for in her work. 
 
Marion Taylor is a well established artist in the area and has compiled 2 books, Colmer’s Hill, One Artists Obsession and more recently West Bay.  Both books explore other artists, both past and present, who are or have been drawn to these fabulous locations and have used them in their paintings.
