BY THE WATER - Back Door Gallery, Dalmuir
June 28 - August 17 2019
The Back Door Gallery is situated inside Dalmuir Library, 3 Lennox Place, Clydebank G81 4HR
‘By The Water’, an exhibition of Watercolours, shows paintings made outside, or ‘en plein air’ around the UK, all within a stones throw of water - either the sea, river or canal. A substantial number of them were painted at the Bowling Canal Basin, by the River Clyde, last November.
The atmospheric beauty of the waterside with often misty but sometimes crisp, clear views over the Clyde was inspirational. The panorama to the West towards Dumbarton varies with the tidal rhythm of nature, whereas to the East the Erskine Bridge is a marvellous triumph of engineering.
