Friday 17 March to 6 April 2017
Nic will also be at the Gallery 11am - 1pm on Friday 17 March to chat about her work.

 

A solo exhibition featuring latest original abstract oil paintings by Nic West, inspired by living in Alderney.  Two years ago, having sold all her possessions, Nic left UK city life and moved to Alderney.  Inspired by her new island life she started to paint.  Since moving to the Island she has explored every part of it either by foot or in kayak; "I've always loved the outdoors but this place has a unique, unusual beauty.  During storms I've headed out to abandoned forts, seen sunsets through bunkers, scrambled over cliffs, watched gale force storms pounding the breakwater.  I've developed a great appreciation of the natural world, a need to live by the sea, and an admiration for people living in a small remote community.  I am delighted to exhibit at CCA Galleries International and to have the opportunity to show my work for the first time in Jersey'.
