Duo’s different perspective of nature
TWO artists demonstrate their different views of the world in the A Force of Nature exhibition at Lincoln’s Gallery at St Martin’s later this month.
The show marks a welcome return to the gallery for Andrew Taylor and Rachel Rogers who respectively favour a realistic and abstract approach to their art. Andrew’s work revolves around ‘portraits’ of majestic specimen trees, along with atmospheric landscapes while Rachel likes to venture beyond the boundaries of Lincolnshire, to Norfolk and her beloved Cornwall.

These two comrades in art both work from their Lincoln garden studios – see the results from Tuesday, April 25 to Sunday, May 7.
