Dorothy Morris Workshop: Using Collage & Mixed Medium in Paintings
Saturday 10 August 11am - 4pm
King Street Gallery welcomes two local artists to the Chate Room, Dorothy Morris and Janis Fry. Dorothy will be running a workshop on Saturday 10 August between 11am and 4pm. The cost is £60 with all materials included. Please contact the gallery to enrol for the workshop.
Dorothy Morris
I am an award winning professional artist. I have a BA in Fashion and Textiles and an Art Teachers certificate. I taught for many years in mainstream education. Later I did a MA in Fine art. I went on to work part time as a tutor working for a mental health charity and I opened my own gallery in 1997. I continue to work with vulnerable people in the community from my gallery in Ferryside whilst also creating my own art. I have exhibited widely throughout Wales, the UK and abroad. I am especially concerned with social and environmental issues and much of my work and other artists involvement reflects these issues.
Janis Fry
I studied at Bangor University and Swansea College of Art, was apprenticed to Mick Morgan at his West Wales pottery and then went to Brittany to learn silk painting with French steam fixed dyes. I won 3 Design Council Awards for this work but then edged into painting while running a pottery studio for 30 years. I am a member of the Royal Watercolour Society of Wales and have taught Art most of my life. I have had exhibitions and shows in Paris, Rome, New York, Miami, Reykjavic, Naples, Piccadilly, Bahrain and Wales. My fascination is with light and its effect on juxtaposed colours and with spiritual matters that govern our existence. I undertake portrait commissions.
