A Cookham day centre’s gallery has a new exhibition on display. The art on show at Elizabeth House was painted by member of staff Emmy Costa-Wagner.

Cookham Dean, Emmy spends her free time painting and she is also a self-published writer.

Her art will be up on display at Elizabeth House until Friday, February 7, where the public can view it for free.

She said: “My art exhibition is an eclectic, multi-medium collection of art pieces with a focus on nature and illustrati­ve images of nature – including forest landscapes, seascape, botanical, animals.

“There is a very strong metaphysic­al, earthy and nature orientated feel about my collection as I love nature and animals and have a real appreciati­on for the beauty of the natural world.”

Elizabeth House is open to the public from 9am to 3pm every weekday, closing for lunch from noon to 1pm.
