THE MARLE GALLERY

Described as an "up and coming artist" by The Marle Gallery in Axminster, local artist Angus Rutherford has proved those words true – with more than half of his work sold on the opening day of the gallery's two-man exhibition he is sharing with Emma Forester.

The Marle owner Nick Broomfield was delighted but unsurprised.

"I loved Angus' work as soon as I first saw it. It is highly original, free and slightly quirky with a core skill of drawing underpinning his technique," he says.

"Angus is a great long-distance walker and his work depicts the scenes he has encountered on his travels around Lyme Regis and West Dorset.

"We encouraged him to put a body of work together and it's been a real delight to see it so well received."

"There may be a lot of hype in the art world, but I really think Angus is a name to watch."

The exhibition runs until March 30. The gallery is open Tuesday until Saturday, 10am-5pm.
