AN exhibition of artwork produced by adult learners has opened.

The collection of more than 70 pieces is on show in the gallery at Greenfield Community and Arts Centre, in Newton Aycliffe, County Durham.

Adult learners who attended painting and drawing classes in the town, held by tutor Tricia McLaughlin, have produced all the work on display.

The members of the group range in age and experience from total beginners to more established painters.

Their subject matter includes animals, landscapes, people, flora and fauna.

Produced mainly in watercolour, many of the pieces are available for sale.

The gallery is open between 9am and 9pm on Mondays to Thursdays and between 9am and 5pm on Fridays.

For more details of the exhibition or the classes, which are held three evenings and one afternoon a week, telephone (01325) 379048.
