Artists display at gallery

Two Peninsula artists, David Meehan and Meredith Gilmore of Umina, will be among several artists displaying their work as part of an exhibition at the Gosford Arts Centre Regional Gallery.

The exhibition "Friday on my mind" will take place from May 19 to 26.

"Friday is the day this group of people looks forward to all week, for the art lesson and the support and socialising that go with it," said artist Ms Meredith Gilmore.

"Artist Kerry Elias Moore has been running weekly art classes at Gosford Arts Centre since 1998.

"Around 20 people who have studied with Kerry during the past eight years have combined under Kerry's leadership to put on an exhibition of their best works from recent years.

"The result is a vibrant exhibition of over 100 works, including pastels, oils, acrylics and prints.

"Several artists represented have had solo exhibitions, do work on commission, or have exhibited overseas."

The exhibition will be held in Studio One at the Gosford Arts Centre Regional Gallery, with opening night on Friday, May 19, at 6.30pm.

The exhibition will be open daily from Friday, May 19, to Friday, May 26, 10am to 4pm.

The exhibition will also feature artists at work most days, Ms Gilmore said.

Artist David Meehan paints pastels and acrylics while Meredith Gilmore paints pastels, especially dog portraits.
