Exhibit A November and December 2025 3 Vanessa Gardiner: Sea Cliffs 19 Acrylic on board, 90 x 135 cm, 2024 ARTIST STATEMENT: “As a landscape painter I have always been drawn to the natural geometry of coastal scenery. The dramatic beauty of the north Cornish coast has long been a source of inspiration for my paintings with its grand architecture of sheer slate cliffs abutting the deep turquoise sea. Sea Cliffs 19 was inspired by an impromptu boat trip made recently along the coast at Boscastle, a place I’ve known and loved since childhood. Looking back at it from the sea revealed aspects of this landscape, which I thought I knew extremely well, in a new and surprising way.” ‘RADIANCE’ 15 November - 10 January: Sladers Yard, WEST BAY, Bridport, DT6 4EL.
