Talk by Melvyn Malkin at 7.00pm

Melvyn works in both raku and pastel. Colour and form are crucial elements in both media. In the pastel, the colours are intense and luminous. The surface of the clay pieces adds texture and the technique of "raku" firing adds a special sheen to the colouring. The works are both complementary and distinct. Melvyn's landscapes illustrate his love for his home province, Saskatchewan.
The "secret artist" is famous for introducing the colour sensibility of his homeland to the landscapes of Canada and Europe. Here, he tackles the Canadian winter, in all its splendour and glory. if you think that white contains all the colours of the rainbow, wait till you see these paintings.
Come and meet Melvyn and Mystery Man, this Friday evening and Saturday 3rd March (11.00am to 3.00pm).
