It's always a rewarding experience to see new artists emerge and spread their creative wings in a group exhibition. The Indigo Art Group has done this with panache as they fill the corridor and main room of the Lyndon Gallery @ Chapel Farm with an eclectic collection of fine works of art. Enthusiasm, individuality and skill is evident in each one of the exhibits, even a sense of fun is detected as it would appear that, as much as these painters take their work seriously, they obviously enjoy the process.

A smile is evoked by Oliva Rossi's delightful ink drawing, Sung Song a beautifully composed work. This reclining nude certainly has attitude as she relaxes with some wine after the music. Very different in style but equally excellent is the small acrylic town scene Roof Tops and the charcoal and crayon Downtime depicting a dame and her dog. Rossi reveals a sure command of a variety of media, all supported by strong drawing skills.

Karol Paluszak's medium of choice is acrylic as seen in the charming Fantasy Fight with a playful bird winging its way over an odd orange landscape. We also appreciate Karol's small portraits with their subtle reference to Modigliani in the elongated and dreamy faces. Together with partner Zofia, the two Paluszaks offer some finely presented, small and colourful silk paintings of landscape subjects.

Hilary McCoy's ability with watercolour overshadows her efforts with oil. Although she can handle the latter, her watercolours are more confident, less laboured and obviously more enjoyable to paint. Although her two little oils of floral subjects, are flawless, the watercolour Autumn, with its suggestion of sunlight filtering through the bush, is a real gem as it captures the essence of the season. The oil medium is Sheila Nugent's forte and she uses it well in her classic still life subjects Pair of Pears and a close up study of the Pink Camellia.

Do find your way to the gallery and enjoy experiencing the first steps of some good artists who enjoy making fine art.
