Linda Mannion Watercolour Painter 1 April to 30 April 10am to 4pm. The Round Tower Gallery

Linda spent her childhood in Glastonbury, Somerset where she first developed her love of nature and the countryside. She started painting in 1980 whilst living in Billericay, Essex and although she had no formal art training she soon had work accepted for exhibition at the Guildhall and Mall Galleries in London.

Linda specialises in detailed flower studies with an abstract background of colour, and these paintings are very much influenced by the changing moods and atmospheres of the beautiful Dorset countryside and the many wild flowers that grow there in abundance. She also paints landscapes, butterfly and moth studies, miniatures and cards.
