CASEY ALLUM: Coming Home – the Langdale Collection, September 9th to October 1st 2023
We are thrilled to be showing this exhibition by Casey Allum. Casey is a self-taught portrait artist and illustrator with a phenomenal eye for animals in particular. Although Casey now lives in Scotland, she was born and grew up in Langdale and this new collection will reflect and be inspired by her childhood there. The exhibition features a new collection of greyscale oil paintings, created solely for this exhibition to mark not only Casey’s admiration for the Cumbrian wildlife but also the simple draw one feels for ‘coming home’.

Phil Hobbs, A Day in Venice, 21st October – 5th November 2017
“I am always slightly envious when someone tells me that they are planning to go to Venice for the first time. Although I have visited that unique city many times, nothing could have prepared me for that first visit. Nor has anything since come close to that initial revelation” – Phil Hobbs
