We hit the refresh button with this exhibition of fresh new work inspired by the sea
FRESH AIRS presents four artists who are inspired by the sea and coast of Devon and Cornwall. Each has a different style but all are passionate about this beautiful part of the world. Their enthusiasm and fresh approach is just what we need right now, as we come out of hibernation and tentatively return to normal life. These beautiful paintings will lift your spirits and give you renewed optimism and hope for the warm, sunny days ahead.
Our lights are up and twinkling, our windows are warm and welcoming, and our winter exhibition promises to bring a little bit of Devon magic to Christmas! The gallery is full of beautiful paintings, sculpture, ceramics and jewellery from our fabulous artists and designers and we think you are going to love browsing for that special gift to put under the tree - or on the wall! Art has a special way of lifting our spirits and bringing joy to our lives so it always gives us great pleasure to share these wonderful artworks with you.

At the age of 16 he joined the Merchant Navy and spent the next twenty five years at sea working on trawlers,...
