The Melbourn Hub has just announced its early Spring Programme which includes the usual exciting diversity of events that it has become famed for in the area. Heralding in the new season, local artist, Phyllis Dunseth, is displaying a selection of her colourful collages which are evocative of the wonderful holiday that she spent in France and Italy last Autumn.
Various materials, such as notes from her diary, and a piano concert on a lake, have contributed to this unusual visual memorandum. Phyllis has been painting in various shapes and forms for around 50 years, including being trained in Stained Glass, and has enjoyed working in a variety of media. She gained her M.A. in Fine Art, and a further qualification from Central St. Martin’s, London. Before retirement this inspiring artist was a teacher in Secondary and Further Education at the Wirral Metropolitan.
“I see my work as a way of life”, remarked Phyllis, who will be taking part in July’s Cambridge Open Studio Event in the Garden Studio at her home in Melbourn, where she has resided for the last 13 years. Her Exhibition will be at the Hub until the end of March.
If you are interested in purchasing any of her work please contact her through the e mail address: phyllisdunseth@btinternet.com. Phyllis’s website will also show her other work, including paintings amd glass. www.phyllisdunseth.co.uk
