Plein Air Painting

by Nina Packer | posted in: Nina Packer | 0

Summer has suddenly arrived in Cornwall, after what seems like the longest and darkest of Winters, and I have been enjoying packing up my painting bag and working outside.

Living & working in Cornwall.
A belated birthday trip to St Ives, and the chance A belated birthday trip to St Ives, and the chance to visit the ancient town church, dedicated to St Ia and thought to be built on the site of her oratory. Legend, (and the church leaflet), tells us that St Ia was an Irish princess who sailed into St Ives bay on a leaf and preached on the Island on the site now occupied by St Nicholas Chapel, (and where Sven Berlin lived and worked before leaving in a wagon for the New Forest). The four font angels here flash large sparkles of mica as you move past them, and have a curled beast each underneath - beauties! Other lovely things include a 1930s Alice Moore embroidery, jewel like glass, charcoal drawing and the exquisite’Mother and Child’ carved by Barbara Hepworth. Lastly, a visit to the Associate Members show @penwithgallery where ‘Old Hushwing - Barn Owl II’, by @katrinaslacksculpture was my favourite thing. . . . #celticsaint #stives #medievalsculpture #contemporarysculpture #barbarahepworth
