Vanessa Gardiner @ Thackeray Gallery

An exhibition of her works.  Vanessa Gardiner is a landscape painter, who captures scenes of the Cornwall coastline, by taking drawings directly from the location, such as Tintagel Place, Pentaghlion Cliff and many other vantage points.  She paints these scenes to bring out their permanency, using layers of paint.  Her paintings have a serenity and power although they are very angular and abstract in form they still project a very reflective process in their making.
