A WORCESTER artist is holding her first solo show which includes paintings of people from the Faithful City at the Royal Birmingham Society of Artists (RBSA)
Francesca Currie’s show, ‘A Study in True Representation,’ is now on display at the gallery in Birmingham and features a host of oil portraits and still life paintings completed by her over the past year.
The talented artist studied painting at Norwich University College of the Arts and trained further at London Atelier Representational Art.
She then moved home to Worcester to pursue a career as an artist full-time two years ago.
Following the move, Francesca has carried a number of private commissions including painting the official portrait of the Bishop of Worcester.
Francesca said: “I am delighted to have my first solo show.
“The RBSA has a long heritage of nurturing art from Birmingham and the surrounding area. It is great to be part of the Society, and I am grateful of their support in hosting this show. I hope people enjoy the work on display as much as I enjoyed putting it together.”
Robert Neil, President of the RBSA and fellow artist, said: “We’re looking forward to showcasing Francesca’s fantastic paintings at the RBSA Gallery. Her work is thoughtful and beautifully executed.”
The show is on display on the ground floor of the RBSA until Saturday, August 26.
