Fred and Karen Murray, both residents of our community and graduates of graphic design, bring their distinct perspectives and techniques to their work. Fred specialises in captivating watercolour landscapes, capturing the serene beauty of nature with a delicate touch. His paintings evoke a sense of tranquillity and invite viewers to step into the peaceful scenes he creates.

In contrast, Karen’s expertise lies in pastels, with a focus on animals and bird studies. Her work is characterised by vivid colours and intricate details, bringing her subjects to life with a dynamic and expressive quality. Karen’s paintings celebrate the diversity and vitality of wildlife, offering a glimpse into the natural world through her artistic lens.

Adding to the charm of the exhibition, some of the paintings will be available for sale. Each artwork comes with a wee story, giving you a deeper insight into the inspiration behind it and the creative journey of the artists. This personal touch makes the experience even more special, allowing you to take home not just a piece of art, but a piece of the artists’ world.

This exhibition is more than just an art show—it’s a community event. Visitors are invited to not only admire the artwork but also to enjoy a relaxing cup of tea or coffee and indulge in some delicious treats available at the venue. It’s the perfect way to spend an afternoon, whether you’re a long-time art enthusiast or simply looking for something new to experience in town.

So, why not pop in and see the pictures? With a warm and welcoming atmosphere, the Lampie Hoose is the ideal setting to appreciate the creative talents of Fred and Karen Murray. Come and support local artists, enjoy some refreshments, and perhaps find a piece of art that speaks to you.
