This seaweed image was found along my local coast a few months ago. It has some lovely flowing sculptural shapes, and I enjoyed introducing some vibrant colours. It is on display at the Artaboyne exhibition. The exhibition was rehung last night, introducing new work so it is still worth another visit if you’ve already been. Lots of amazing artwork to see. The show is open till 1st August 10am- 5pm daily at the Victory Hall in Aboyne and entry is free. It is well worth a visit if you are in the area.

We are now at the halfway point of the exhibition which means that the show has been rehung and refreshed! Lots of new work on display. Please come and visit us again to see the new exhibition 😃

Also it’s worth remembering that if you are interested in a particular artist’s work, we may have more by that artist in reserve so please ask the committee member on duty who will be able to show you all the available artwork!
