A visit to Josie Clouting’s art show - Oxfordshire Arts Weeks
Oxfordshire Art Weeks opened on Saturday and runs countywide until the 29th of May. I was able to attend the private view of a lovely friend on Friday – Josie Clouting.
Josie and I go back a long time, with a fond friendship formed during her time working at Emerald and exhibiting her stunning paintings in the gallery over the years.
Now based in Oxfordshire, she is joined by @valentina.gonzalez.artand @yvettephillips_art at the Blewbury Clubhouse for Oxfordshire Artweeks from May 6th to the 14th for her current exhibition.
Displaying an exciting collection of Oil paintings, Josie’s looks at places that make us feel inspired and insignificant all at once. This new collection of works focuses on wild places in the British Isles.
