European Union of Women holds art exhibition in Jávea
EIGHT women artists of six nationalities chose to live and paint here!
The work of these remarkable and talented women can be found under the roof of Jávea Golf Club, with the main event today, Friday, April 21, and the exhibition continuing over the weekend.
Sandi Goodwin: Born a Londoner, lived across the world, she creates colourful chaos, a random visual train of thought which allows others to find their own narrative
Sue Hankey: A retired Brit enjoying the beautiful countryside here, who loves painting portraits and groups of Spanish people - musicians, actors, and processions and gatherings. She just loves the pleasure of painting
Frances Jones: A Brit, here for many years, she finds new ways to be creative and adores the relaxation painting gives her - this joy spilling into her work
Emma Jane Lawton: British born, she is currently focusing on portraits, painting in oil or acrylic, or both. In her work, there's a fascination in how colours react differently against one another
Particia Leona: Born in the Netherlands, lived in Nigeria, Hong Kong and Singapore, she uses colours to form a kaleidoscope of shapes and materials, with colour always forming the centre of attention
Anna Martynovska: A Ukrainian modern realist, finds inspiration in portraiture, reflecting the inner world of the subject, with the enhanced background using creative techniques
Marion Oprel: Born in the Netherlands, a former translator at the European Parliament, she takes her inspiration from nature all around her. She 'lets the trees speak'
Jing Xu-Koprio: Born in southern China, now in Spain, she uses her high-level specialist medical knowledge to create beautiful human faces in a fantastic colourful environment, reflecting cultures from around the world, including Spain
Opening hours to see the exhibition are Friday, April 21 from 09.00 until late - with the official opening at 11.00. Saturday, April 22 from 09.00 until late and Sunday 09.00 until 17.00.
