Three village ladies show off their artwork in the city

A trio of artists from Kilbarchan are hitting Glasgow’s West End with their own exhibition.

The Triple Exposure show feature a selections of works from the village's artists Liz MacKinlay, Margaret Borthwick, and Maryel FitzRandolph.

It is being staged at Partickhill Bowling Club from this Friday, December 2, until Sunday.

The ladies have been painting together at local art classes, clubs, and in nature for eight years, and are delighted to have on display and for sale a range of their pieces that illustrate the individual styles and points of view of each woman as an artist.

TV costume designer and art teacher Liz MacKinlay is exhibiting some of her water colours alongside her felting and embroidery. A keen sailor, some of Liz’s works are inspired by her voyages around the West Coast of Scotland.

Former Johnstone GP and current student with the Open College of Art Margaret Borthwick , is primarily interested in landscape painting inspired by local spots including Glennifer Braes and Castle Semple. Margaret’s work often explores detail in fungi, textures of tree bark, and shapes of tangled tree branches in oils, pen and wash, and acrylic inks.

Canadian-born Maryel FitzRandolph was brought up on an apple farm in Nova Scotia which bred a keen interest in nature. Maryel often paints scenes from nature including trees, landscapes, and flowers in oils and watercolours. She is also inspired by her travels including trips to Nepal and Antartica.
