We’re set up and ready to go for yet another exhibition at the beautiful Castle Espie Gallery! Between the four of us with our busy lives the run-up to a joint exhibition can often seem hectic and disjointed. Oil paintings need time to dry, transport for 6 foot square paintings gets organised then doesn’t turn up – Alison’s quick thinking and involvement of local builders with a van save the day – pieces need collected from various framers, hanging (MUCH harder than it might seem!) needs done, cataloguing, printing, invites, and so on…
Yet SOMEHOW, perhaps out of some deep underlying family understanding of each others’ strengths, we always pull off the inevitable and put on a show for you that you’ll hopefully enjoy and feel inspired and enlivened by. And we didn’t even fall out (that’s our story and we’re sticking to it!).
All enquiries relating to the purchase of a painting should be made by contacting Castle Espie reception in person at 78 Ballydrain Road, Comber, BT23 6EA or by phoning 02891874146.
