Chasing The Light III

A Collaborative Exhibition by Julia Entwistle and John Bentley

The majestic Northern landscape has enchanted both Julia and John, establishing them as contemporary romantic artists. This exhibition showcases their interpretations of these sublime vistas through painting and photography.

Julia’s paintings emerge from the ‘half-light’ – those precious moments at dawn and dusk when soft, diffused light transforms the landscape. Through her impressionistic style, she captures this ethereal quality, creating works that shimmer with atmospheric beauty.

John’s photography resonates with this same sensitivity to light and atmosphere. His deep connection to the landscape was forged during his youth on the Isle of Skye, where the brooding mountains and turbulent skies left an indelible impression. This dramatic sensibility infuses each of his photographs with raw emotional power.

Artist Mike Lord

this event is now finished. thank you to all that came and support mike and the studios

Mike Lord started painting in his fifties, about six years ago, when he attended an oil painting pleasure class at Cedar Farm in Mawdsley run by contemporary artist Chris Mcloughlin.
 
The COVID -19 lock-down in 2020 meant he was unable to work, so to fill his time he painted, developing his skills and style, often painting five or six pictures a month.
 
Subsequently he had his first solo exhibition at Cedar Farm in 2022 and since then has had several further solo exhibitions at Cedar Farm and in Chorley as well as having work displayed in the Clitheroe Contemporary Art Exhibition, Blackburn Art Gallery and a restaurant in Chorley and displaying at the Art in the Pen art Fair in Skipton.
 
Mike says there are two main inspirations which drive his work. One is to paint what is around him in the beautiful Lancashire countryside where he lives and the other is about imagination and narrative in the tradition of magical realism, but again, often inspired by the local countryside.
 
His work is predominantly landscape painting with figures generally included only where they serve the narrative intention of the work.
 
He says he has been influenced by the work of Van Gogh (who isn’t?) Gustav Klimt, Stanley Spencer and David Hockney, though he strives to paint in his own authentic style, rather than imitate the greats. When asked about his art Mike comments as follows: “I had been waiting all my life to find a way to express myself creatively. Painting has finally given me that voice and I love it.”
 
PREVIEW IS FRIDAY 22ND NOVEMBER FROM 6.30 – 9 PM. Then this exhibition continues over the weekend SAT 23RD & SUN 24TH from 12 – 4 pm.
