National Open Art Exhibition

On Friday 15th I visited the National Open Art Exhibition in chichester with my mum and grandma, at the Minerva theatre where we met up with my aunt, who was volunteering as a receptionist. As she'd seen the exhibition many times whilst working she kindly showed us around, talking through each piece of art work with with us and sharing extra background information. There were some very interesting pieces, with a variety of disciplines such as painting, textiles and photography. Some works were very inspiring, I particularly liked some of the print work, one where the artist had printed owls and images onto feathers creating a very interesting effect, another was a very intricate etching which had enormous detail. Some of the photography used really good editing skills, experimenting with the techniques they used, to create similar effects, would be a good exercise to practise photo editing.

A selection artists that interested me ,and their work, are shown below with links to their websites.
