At the end of next week in the Michael West Gallery Artist, Greig Burgoyne, will be discussing and celebrating his wall to wall painting installation.

Charm Offensive: Artist's TalkGreig is a prolific British painter. Since graduating from the Royal College of Art, he has exhibited world wide.

In preparation to his exhibition, Greig made various site visits to the island, spending most of his time filling sketchbooks and observing the island’s culture through drawing.

His installation explores aspects of bygone charm juxtaposed beside the brash realities of contemporary, rural life.

Expressive mark making, detail and huge scale imagery attack the quay arts walls from floor to ceiling to create an energetic and seamless journey.

Whilst listening to the talk you can enjoy a glass of vino!
