Marine artist and sometime boatbuilder Jamie Dodds’s latest exhibiton began on October 3 at National Maritime Museum, Cornwall, in Falmouth. The exhibtion, called Wood to Water, showcases large paintings and lino cuts and focuses on Cornwall and the working boats of Falmouth.
“It gives me great pleasure to be showing my linocuts and paintings in this wonderful building again, in a museum that celebrates and is dedicated to small boats, vessels that float, fly and fire the imagination. As an artist and former shipwright it has been invigorating to draw on the museum’s collections and the very rich maritime heritage of Cornwall. I would like to dedicate this exhibition to all who keep the boatbuilding and seamanship skills and traditions alive,” James said.
The show will run until September 1st 2020. More: HERE
