This is the second solo exhibition of oil paintings by Nicola Rose held at Above the Blue following a highly successful show last year and glowing praise for her powerful, dramatic compositions and her sophisticated use of colour and texture.

The inspiration and focus for this new body of work came from a trip Nicola made to Scotland last Summer, staying in a remote croft in a rugged and sparsely inhabited area where she could immerse herself in un-interrupted sketching and painting.

Despite the difficult economic climate Nicola has bucked the trend and had a very successful year selling her paintings which are becoming highly sought after. Do not miss the opportunity to view this exciting exhibition at Above the Blue, Port Solent and to acquire some of her beautiful work.

The exhibition will run from 23 June – 15 July with a private viewing on 23rd June from 7pm onwards. Please email lynn@abovetheblue.co.uk for an invite. The usual opening hours are Wednesday to Saturday 10.30am – 7pm Sunday 11am – 5pm.
