V A L E R I E    A L E X A N D E R

       Watercolour paintings of Venice. Valerie trained at the Fine Art Dept., King's University, Newcastle and at Birmingham College of Art. She works mostly in water-colour, sometimes in pastel, to paint her own individual interpretation of the natural world, whether it be in the form of a landscape, or a simple bunch of flowers. "It is the light falling on a subject that transforms it, and it is the fascination of trying to capture and convey the effects of light that is the stimulus and mainspring of my work." Her work has been included in two national touring exhibitions, and has been on show in London at the Royal College of Art and in Manchester. She exhibits regularly in Birmingham and in various art venues around the West Midlands. The Patchings Art Centre has put some of her work on their website. Her painting 'Fishing by Dinham Bridge' was printed in the "International Artist" magazine, when she was a Finalist in one of their competitions. As a result of this an article on her painting techniques is published in the book; "How did you Paint That? 100 Ways to Paint Landscapes", published by International Artist magazine. In 2008 she was elected as a full member of the Society of Floral Painters.
