Original oil paintings by Rosalyn Siân Evans

An Exhibition of landscape paintings of North Pembrokeshire. Viewpoints which are dear to the artist and evoke the sense of 'Hiraeth', and seem to be timeless and unchanging due to being on the coast, interlinked with Abstract paintings which deal with emotion and the elements that encompass the sea and landscape.

Rosalyn grew up on a farm on the cliff tops of the St.Davids Peninsula. This affiliation with land and sea greatly influences Rosalyn's dramatic pieces; the energy of the waves, the seasons and the incredible light of Pembrokeshire inspires Rosalyn's eye-catching abstract work, with layers of oil paint built up slowly on the canvas to capture the vast beauty of this rugged landscape. Rosalyn likes to paint with a variety of tools including brushes,palette knives,rollers,and her hands and feet to create depth and drama in her unique pieces.

Rosalyn has a BA Hons in Fine Art (Painting) from Margaret Street School of Art, Birmingham and lives and works in St.Davids.

The Gallery is open from 11am - 8pm Tuesday - Sunday

From 3 May to 23 May, the Joanna Field Gallery at the Torch Theatre, Milford Haven will be exhibiting art works by pupils from Milford Haven Comprehensive School. This will be their fourth exhibition at the Torch.

The exhibition will see 44 pupils, aged 15 to 16, who undertook GCSE Art last summer taking part. Previously, the exhibition was held at the Milford Haven Town Hall before being relocated to the Torch.

“The exhibition is a celebration of art-work created by the pupils in their final year and a chance to see what they have achieved,” explained Katie George, the Art Technician at Milford Haven Comprehensive School.

Katie added: “This will be the ninth exhibition that the school has arranged. We started off in Milford Town Hall and then were very excited to be able to show our annual art event in the Torch. This will the fourth year showing in the Torch, which has been really fantastic as it gives us a chance to show the work of the pupils in a professional setting, and the pupils have spent a great deal of time and effort completing their masterpieces under the watchful eye of their Art Teacher, Mr Chris Green. They re encouraged to use as many different materials as possible ranging from painting in watercolours and acrylics, printing, sculpture, collage, clay work, printing and many more.

“The pupils work on their individual investigations. They pick a theme of their choice and then work through with artist research that connects to their theme. They then follow with lots of experimentation using different media and materials also painting, drawing and sketching. They then have their two-day exam, which they have spent time planning for using all the skills and materials they have now become familiar with to produce a final piece that will be shown in the exhibition,” explained Katie.

“It’s always exciting to tell the pupils that their final pieces will be on show in an exhibition in The Torch and generally they are excited for that to happen. They are so busy trying out new materials and ideas during their lessons, that they don’t really think about the exhibition itself until they are invited to see their work at the Torch. When they come with their parents or friends, it’s usually a real ‘Feel Good Factor’ of achievement, which is always great to see. The whole ambiance and setting created at the Torch is perfect,” concluded Katie.

The Gallery is open from 11am - 8pm Tuesday - Sunday
