British art: 'Bed and Breakfast' at the Savoy at Red Rag Gallery

The gallery is offering two new paintings from British artist Janet Ledger.

Born in 1934, Janet Ledger studied painting at the Northampton School of Art. Her paintings have great appeal and can be found in many public and private collections including the Tate Gallery. Janet has tremendous ability to capture the atmosphere and colour of a scene. This is very evident in the paintings currently available.

The new paintings are good examples of Janet's art work featuring day to day British scenes of people going about their lives. The scenes are at opposite ends of the British social and geographic spectrum. A woman in Newcastle upon Tyne is featured in the street in Woman Eating Chips whilst in London Ledger has observed and captured a scene outside one of the UK's most exclusive hotels in Bed and Breakfast . Both paintings are painted in oils and are available to purchase.
