Barbourne Artists’ Spring Exhibition 2026

Experience Worcester’s creative spirit in full bloom in this spring showcase of work by five talented local artists.

Feel the energy in Felicity Osborne’s dynamic abstract paintings. Created using fluid art techniques and guided by spontaneity, her pieces pulse with movement, capturing the joy of creative freedom inspired by organic forms.

Pause to take in elegant still life flower paintings, interior scenes and serene Worcestershire landscapes by Margaret Powell. Her classically trained hand and nuanced, moody palette reflect a love of nature’s quiet beauty, evoking the timeless charm of the English countryside.

Lose yourself in Cherrie Mansfield’s bold, abstract works, where rich, shimmering colour meets expressive mark-making and intriguing textures. With a fearless approach to colour and form, her vibrant paintings captivate the eye and spark the imagination.

Discover cityscapes, landscapes, and glimpses of wildlife hidden within Caroline Hall’s expressive paintings. Inspired by an impressionist sensibility and brought to life through a colourful palette, her work celebrates the beauty and vitality of the natural world.

Journey through memory and landscape with Jane Arthur, as she composes stories from fabric, thread, and paint. Her layered textile and mixed media works breathe new life into recycled materials, each piece rich with thoughtful detail and narrative.

Whether you’re drawn to bold statements, delicate details, or richly textured narratives, the Barbourne Artists’ Spring Exhibition offers something for everyone—a true celebration of local talent and artistic expression.
