Examples of
work by some of our Art Alert members...
Glenn Allton
Glenn began drawing during the Covid lockdown, predominantly in graphite and recently Polychromos colour pencils. He particularly enjoys creating portraits of both animals and people.
While drawing from a photo of an elephant during my lunchbreak, I found I was being watched by a colleague who quietly slipped me a note asking if they could buy it. What a boost to my confidence and my first ever sale !! She has since bought further pieces which I am proud to say are framed and hanging in her house.
I’m inspired by Jamie Boots - Wildlife Artist (www.jamieboots.com)
Becoming a member of Art Alert has given me the confidence to share my work and ideas with like minded people and other creatives, thus helping me to develop my skills further.
Anne Becker
Anne has always been interested in Art and has been able to put this into practice since she retired. She experiments with a wide variety of media, collage, printmaking, and paint. Anne paints what inspires her, a wide and eclectic choice of subjects. A humorous self-portrait.
"Edificio Los Naranjos" This is the first collage Anne made, based on a doorway in Spain. It was entered into the 'Decade of Doorways' Art Alert exhibition at the Nuneaton museum and art gallery.
Henri Matisse is an inspirational artist to Anne. She is drawn to his expressive use of colour and design both in painting and collage.
Being a member of Art Alert has been the catalyst for Anne's work. It has encouraged her to create, experiment and exhibit with like-minded people.
