John Evans' opening at the gallery last week had a spectacular turnout. If you missed the opening and haven't seen the show, there's still time. The exhibition runs through November 2nd.

Armstrong pins the violence of the sea against a placid blue sky in White Lightening, while Zener's seemingly gravity defying figure inArchway points to the meditative calm that can be found beneath the surface of the water.
