At the "ARIADNI" gallery, 12 Almyrou Street, the exhibition of the well-known English painter F.J.Featham continues successfully. The artist, who has lived and worked for the last 15 years in Rethymno, presents a series of watercolours with subjects drawn from the Cretan countryside.
Deeply knowledgeable of the material he uses, he gives his works an emotional-sensual form that is sometimes tinged with melancholy and other times he creates an atmosphere of bliss.
His transparent colours succeed one another in harmony with the design and rhythm of the surfaces. In a completely personal and poetic way, the artist renders in an individual style the spaces that inspire him. We could say that here the subject is a pretext for expression.
His exhibition at the Ariadne Gallery is his fourth solo show. Works by F. J. Featham are in collections in England, Greece, France, the Netherlands and Germany.
