The Story Within: Richard Ames & Mal Lee

Abstract art to fire your imagination.

Richard Ames – I am a retired live music tour manager/director and have been on the road most of my life visiting all ‘four corners’ of the world. I’m also a published author and podcaster. Touring over a span of 50 years means I have observed many incredible spectacles of colour and texture, which have had a strong influence on my work as an abstract artist. I’ve been painting for some years working mostly in oil and acrylic on plywood or canvas. Since retiring from touring, I am enjoying the exhibition circuit bringing my work to a wider audience of collectors.

Mal Lee – I find the colours and structures of industrial and coastal landscapes, mainly in England and Wales, to be truly inspiring but sometimes inspiration comes from the noise, bustle and colour of foreign markets and sea ports. It is exciting to capture the energy of the elements as well as the vitality of busy places. I use mainly acrylics with some oil and am always open to new ideas.

Open 10am to 4pm daily. Free admission.
