Libby Edmondson is holding an event called “A life full of colour” between the 26th September and 26th November 2023. There is free entry to anyone who wants to attend from 10am- 5pm. This exhibition will celebrate the work of around the lake district created by Libby. She uses a vibrant tone in her work through the use of many different colours. She also does work such as embroidery, ceramics, weaving and pastels. The exhibition includes 270 pieces of Libby’s artwork. With the assistance of her husband, Nigel, and son, Richard, the exhibition embraces her creativity in many different forms. Each piece tells a story of how and why they were produced. It also includes the chance to see her last unfinished paintings and an insight to her garden studio. There are also many opportunities to buy original artwork, prints, canvases or a calendar.
