Suspended: Works in Watercolour

This exhibition showcases the beauty and versatility of watercolour paintings, which have a rich history dating back centuries. In this exhibition, you will see a variety of watercolour paintings that showcase different styles, techniques, and subject matter.

Watercolour paintings have a long and fascinating history. Their first documented use was by ancient Egyptians to decorate papyrus scrolls, and then by Chinese artists to create delicate landscapes and scenes. It is believed that watercolours may even date back to cave paintings of paleolithic Europe. However, it was in Europe during the Middle Ages and the Renaissance that watercolour paintings began to gain popularity as a standalone medium.
