From the 7th - 20th Jan, Qdos is open 7 days a week throughout summer.

There are 27 paintings in this exhibition and I will be updating my website over time to include them all. However there are some more images in WORKS. Also NEW WORKS 2017, Details .... for a closer look at the painted surface. 

The PUBLICATIONS page on this site has two essays about this exhibition by Raymond Gill and Cliff Burtt

 'These paintings are my constants, my way of looking closer at the moments that have inspired me over time, they are my pause button in my everyday life' - Richard Manning

Based on reality and then evolved into paintings with a surface both beautiful and intricate, Richard Manning is not afraid to follow his instinct, to take risks with paint and medium, leaving traces of layers and remnants of marks to describe a romantic connection to the ocean, rivers and sky of the south west coast. Each painting begins with a vision, and often a story, that drives the progression through the months it takes to complete a work. Working on more than one painting at a time this exhibition is the result of two years work in the studio.
