Spring Cheltenham's next exhibition, starting today, is the first solo show at the gallery of artist, gallery owner and curator, Conrad P Clarke.

Conrad is an award-winning artist living and working in Cheltenham. His work draws inspiration from the natural world and often focuses on the interaction between plants and their environment.

By carefully layering colour, texture, pattern and delicate detail, he manages to encapsulate the beauty and complexities of different ecologies, as well as breathing life into contemporary landscape painting.

The exhibition, entitled 'Beautiful Ground', runs until June 6 and is open Tuesday to Monday 10am - 5pm (it will close earlier on the final day).
