THE Fantasy World of Gary Walton is an exhibition of trains and boats taken from the artist's imagination.

The show, at Bevere Vivis Gallery and Picture Framers, also includes a limited edition of his paintings called The Occupations.

It is the first time the 41-year-old has held an exhibition in Worcester.

"The paintings are fictional, a concept of my imagination," said Mr Walton, from Linksview Crescent, Newtown, Worcester.

"The Occupations is based upon jobs in shops, such as a florist shop.

"They are modern, quirky, fun paintings of everyday life, painted with soft pastel watercolours mixed with ink to make them graphic."

Mr Walton, who was born in the Faithful City, is a self-taught artist.

He has been painting semi-professionally for the last three years, and his work includes watercolours and oils.

The exhibition takes place at the gallery until Wednesday, December 24.

The gallery, in Bevere Lane, Worcester, is open from 10.30am to 5pm, Tuesday to Saturday.

Admission is free.
