SALLY Moore will be showing her work at the Martin Tinney Gallery, Cardiff, from now until May 9.

The Barry-born artist trained at the Ruskin School of Art, Oxford, and subsequently won a scholarship to study at the British School in Rome.

From an early stage in her career Sally’s paintings made an impact, winning her awards at the National Eisteddfod, and at the 1996 Discerning Eye Exhibition in London, where William Packer awarded her the critic’s prize. In 2005 she won the Welsh Artist of the Year Award.

Because of her painstakingly detailed style of painting, Sally’s exhibitions are infrequent - this show consists of only 18 new paintings. Her work depicts dramatic and intriguing stories of everyday life. She pieces together both the reality and the imagined to create paintings full of narrative.

Sally’s work is in numerous public and private collections, including the National Museum and Gallery of Wales, National Library of Wales, Newport Museum and the Contemporary Art Society.

To view Sally Moore’s work the Gallery will be open Monday to Friday, 10am until 6pm and Saturday’s from 10am until 5pm.
