An Early Summer Exhibition at Juno Gallery Featuring Work from Two Exciting Artists:
Susan Winton & Malcolm Cheape
24th May -4th July
Susan Winton paints her fantastic abstract paintings from her studio in Fife, she graduated from Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art in 198. Since then she has worked on commissions, installations of paintings & murals in various public buildings in the Fife area. As well as exhibiting
in galleries throughout Scotland, Susan is currently lecturing in art & Design in Elmwood College & Coatbridge College.
‘My current work is an amalgam of media and techniques. For this collection I have used a combination of painted plaster, photographs, and wax and acetate transfers mixing old and new technologies. Inspired by my roots in North East Scotland, and my ties to The Shetland Islands, my subject matter includes the wild and rugged coastline contrasting with the tamed nature of the countryside. The natural world and how it is affected, by man or the natural elements, has for me has been a very important part of my life and of how to portray it. My main aim is produce work which will display my interest in the environment and to combine a variety of media with subject matter in a way that allows me to explore, develop and express my interpretation of the natural world.’
Malcolm Cheape lives and works in Glenfarg, Perthshire where he has worked since completing a BA Honours and Postgraduate course in painting at Duncan of Jordanstone college of Art in Dundee in 1987. His primary subject matter is the contemporary and historical world of commercial, industrial and naval shipping. This includes decommissioned fishing boats, private yachts modern day trawlers, tall ships and battleships. Scotland's East and West coasts give him the backdrop from which he
captures the grace and character of commercial water-bound vessels. Through researching the archives of Britain's maritime museums his work attempts to mirror both the past and present.
Juno is delighted to bring this must see Exhibition of work from two new and innovative Artists. |

By popular demand Juno Design Gallery has moved to Dunoon Town Centre.
This Bijou Art Space was formed in 2002 in Kirn in Argyll, by mother & daughter, Maria & Joanne Mackellar who are both graduates in Textile & Jewellery from the Glasgow School of Art. Their main aim was to provide a space to exhibit not only their own work but also that of other Contemporary Artists from across the UK & beyond, including all disciplines of Design & Fine Art. This new space in the centre of town catering for an even wider audience will provide seasonal mixed Painting Exhibitions along with two exciting Solo Exhibitions per year. ‘We are keen to provide a contemporary space for the public of all ages to take an interest in good Art works, whether you are a connoisseur or just curious, you are very welcome to browse the scarves, jewellery, ceramics, hand made cards, prints & paintings in the gallery. This year we have unique work sourced from France, Italy & Germany, England & Scotland. We are keen to keep changing and bringing new and exciting work, which cannot be easily found even in our Scottish Cities. Many of the art works are produced by recent Art School graduates & designers. The painting exhibition programme for the year is different and varied, including some previously not seen talent’ Contact us for full list for 2005 web site for images of works on exhibition www.junogallery.com.
