In this exhibition her work is focussed on her own unique portrayal of Welsh idioms and proverbs. This will be Pilkington’s first full exhibition following her graduation with a first class honours degree in Fashion Illustration from Ravensbourne Academy.

Meanwhile artist Gareth Parry has been exhibiting at Oriel Plas Glyn y Weddw for over 10 years, and is considered by art critics to be one of the best oil painters in Wales. In fact, his first solo show at the exclusive Thackeray Gallery in London in October 2009 saw fans queuing for over 12 hours to buy his work.

The exhibition showing the work of these three artists opens on Sunday 23 January at 2pm, and then runs until Sunday 3 April 2011.
