AN annual array of artistic talent has gone on display in Bedale.

The decorative ballroom at Bedale Hall became a gallery of colours and images for the latest exhibition by members of Bedale Art Group.

Following a preview evening attended by invited guests, the exhibition was thrown open to the public for two days, with free admission and a chance to buy some of the works on view.

The club has 40 members, of whom 30 exhibited 200 works in materials including watercolours, oils and silk paintings.

Subjects included landscapes and animal studies. The exhibition also included crafts.

The club was founded in 1999 and its members come from a wide area around Bedale.
