TEN DORSET ARTISTS, ONE INSPIRING WINTER SHOWCASE
Discover paintings, prints and cards in a dynamic exhibition celebrating Dorset’s creativity as Dorset Artists Guild Winter Exhibition is unveiled in Wimborne
A vibrant showcase of creativity has arrived in Wimborne. The Dorset Artists Guild presents its Winter Exhibition, bringing together more than 100 original works by ten exceptional artists.
Hosted in the lower floor of Church House, next to Wimborne Minster, the exhibition runs until 4th December and celebrates the theme “A Celebration of Landscape and Dorset Art.”
Visitors can expect to see iconic Dorset scenes - Corfe Castle, Studland Bay and Wimborne itself - captured on canvas alongside evocative international vistas, from Venetian waterways to Greek fishing ports and glowing Italian sunsets. There’s also striking depictions of flowers, birds, and wildlife from the Dorset coast and countryside
Katie Bourne, the founder of Dorset Artists Guild explained: “The Guild is a collective of professional artists from across Dorset. We’re delighted to be back in Wimborne for a third exhibition this year and to bring together such a prestigious group of artists from across the county.
She added: “This dynamic showcase highlights the remarkable diversity and artistic innovation within the region. Featuring original paintings, works on canvas, framed and unframed works and a curated selection of artist cards and prints, the exhibition offers visitors a rare opportunity to view and purchase work from established professional painters and emerging talent in one inspiring space.”
Visitors can enjoy work by ten respected artists - Kimberley Day, Sue Fawthrop, Rob Adams, Ben Winter, Ian Hargreaves, Claire Tozer, Cliff Towler, Tom Marshall, Sue Smith and Nicole Tudor-Williams
Alongside her successful career as a concept artist in the film industry, Kimberley Day, from the Isle of Purbeck, devotes the rest of her time to painting abstract landscapes inspired by the local environment which she explores on foot, bike and in the sea. She said: “The act of making art tends to be very private so to have this opportunity to come together with other Dorset-based artists and exhibit our work in unison is a wonderful opportunity not just for art lovers but for us as creators too.”
The exhibition is free and is open from 10am until 5pm, closing at midday on 4th December, you can also view on the website.
