Artists will showskills at RotaryClub exhibition

A number of specialist artists will be demonstrating their talents free of charge at the Rotary Art Show sponsored by the Bognor Regis Observer.

Among them will be Jane Denham. She will be present between 6pm and 8pm tomorrow.

Jane is a well known artist from the Worthing and Brighton area and is teaching at The Brook Studios in Brighton.

She is also the visual studies associate lecturer at the London College of Fashion.

She said: 'Drawing is my passion. My earliest creative practice began with the line. My present work continues to explore the possibilities of the pen within painting.

'For me, the sketch, which records in ink one's initial visual experience, remains the purest encounter in artistic practice.

'By refusing to reduce the sketch to a mere stage in a painting's creation, I hope to blur the boundaries between painting and drawing, and broaden our conventional understanding of both practices.'

The Rotary Art Show will be open from 11am until 8pm between today and Sunday. More than 400 paintings will be on view and available to buy.

Funds raised will be used by the Rotarians to support local charities.
