An exhibition of new paintings by Celia Perceval: 10-25 May 2008
Celia Perceval lives in Australia where she has exhibited for over 30 years. Her father, John Perceval, and her mother's brother Arthur Boyd, were two of the great Australian painters of the 20th Century. Her wish to paint the Irish landscape, with its pervasive damp atmosphere, is a challenge to someone used to brilliant, dry light. But her energetic style, along with an acute eye for incidental detail, brings alive the winter-deadened countryside of Co.'s Kerry and Wexford.

The Watch House Gallery in Market Square, Enniscorthy will have an exciting exhibition in December of original prints and paintings, ideal for that special Christmas gift. The show is running in association with The Norman Gallery which has supplied the works. This interesting development was hatched by Mary Bourke and Jeremy Hill who feel that Enniscorthy needs a gallery offering quality works of art at affordable prices. Among the pieces on offer will be 4 recent pencil drawings by Irish artist David Begley. There are also 2 new Begley paintings and some work from his early days in Bunclody.
Also featured are works by the Gorey born Isabel Mesham, and Wexford artists Christine Mooney and Grainne Codd. An international flavour is given by Saul Schary (New York) Marie Opper (France) and Rosemary Mangiamele (Australia). Sean Hardie, Anthony Lyttle, Finola Graham, and Patricia Wheeler complete the line-up.
