Work by Ghislaine Davis
“The exhibition is of oil paintings and watercolours from Norway, France and the area around Chichester.
“There are motifs from where I have lived from my husband’s photographs who is a keen amateur photographer.
“After visiting my husband’s sister in Canada, I was introduced to the Canadian Group of Seven who have been a constant influence for their use of colours, light and winter landscapes.
“Living in Norway gave plenty of opportunity to paint snowscapes that really interested me. The interesting skies and seascapes in the Chichester area have also been an inspiration as in the west of Norway. Since I came to Chichester, I have been a member of a Tuesday morning watercolour group. As participant in the Art Trail and ad hoc exhibitions in the library and The Oxmarket I have had a lot of positive appreciation of my work including those who have my pictures on their walls.
