—
With the proliferation of
quality galleries, it
is almost impossible to go to
any district in London without discovering an exhibition worth a visit.
At
the Paton Gallery in Covent Garden is a show of recent paintings by Rhonda
Whitehead who, though born in Australia, studied
at London art schools and
colleges, and now lives and works in East Anglia. The ample skies and wide
flatlands which form the chief theme of her paintings portray the spirit of the
places rather than attempting to reproduce their physical configuration.
The smaller works, a clever combination of pastel and watercolor, are
particularly fine.
