An exhibition of original works by local artist Sheryll K Fox is being hosted at Swindon Town Hall by Swindon Dance.
Her artworks will be displayed throughout the Grade II Listed building, culminating in a celebration evening later in the year.
Regular visitors to the Town Hall can enjoy a selection of Sheryll’s paintings, which were hung in the reception area at the start of the new term, providing a taste of what is to come.
While the building is not open to the general public, Swindon Dance is organising a special event in July, during which all the artwork can be viewed and appreciated.
Sheryll said: “I love the challenge of capturing movement in my art and so sketching at Swindon Dance has been an amazing opportunity and truly inspiring to my art practice.
"I have been captivated by the exceptional teachers and the dedicated students that I have observed over the past year or so. “
The exhibition, titled Moving Moments, in the iconic Swindon building will feature an eclectic mix of expressive paintings, many inspired by dance and drama, as well as stunning landscape views of the Wiltshire countryside.
Sheryll’s style combines a rich use of texture, layers, and mark-making with strong observational techniques. She begins by sketching from life and then develops her ideas into paintings in her home studio in Wanborough.
Viv Slayford, Director and CEO of Swindon Dance, said: “At Swindon Dance, we believe in enriching lives through dance, that everyone regardless of age, creed, gender or background is entitled to access and enjoy the richness of art and culture in their lives. In presenting Sheryll's beautiful paintings in our beautiful grade II listed building, we will be continuing to enrich the cultural experience for our local communities and everyone who uses our building.”
