PEOPLE in Rowney Green were recently treated to an art exhibition of work created by members of the Brian Swingler Art Group reflecting the natural world.

Stimuli included the Newbourne Wood at Rowney Green and other local areas of natural beauty.

Mr Swingler has been teaching and lecturing for more than 20 years in all aspects of painting and drawing.

He is well known through his classes at NEW College and numerous exhibitions of his work in and around Birmingham, London, the West Country and the USA.

He is currently tutoring a group of 25 mature students who meet weekly in Rowney Green.

The exhibition, which was also displayed at Droitwich Library, had 80 pictures, many of which were for sale.
