Spring Light and Colour – New Paintings by Tess Dunlop

In Spring I was fortunate to exhibit for the first time in Jane’s lovely gallery The Velvet Easel in Portobello. It was great to meet Jane and super lovely to have the opportunity to showcase some pieces there. I’ve posted a couple below: –

The one above is called Home for Supper and is painted over a red canvas. Boat lovers will likely recognise this is as Newhaven Harbour (Lighthouse and Beacon – Newhaven : A Stravaig through time) and it you don’t drive, you can reach this easily enough on the Edinburgh Tram Homepage | Edinburgh Trams

It’s painted on archival canvas and measures 70cm x 70cm – the image continues around the sides – no need for hanging

This one (above) is from my Girders series. Featuring the Forth Bridge at sunrise on mid-summer’s day. Again, painted over a red canvas, it measures 70cm x 70cm

Hot off the press!! The Velvet Easel Gallery

Featuring in the Spring Exhibition at The Velvet Easel Gallery

Opening on Saturday 1st February 2025

I’m delighted to have the opportunity to have a few pieces in The Velvet Easel Gallery’s Spring 2025 Exhibition. If any of these (below) catch your eye, or if you are in the area, do pop in and have a chat with Jane or the team.
