Three generations of women living and painting in Malhamdale
This exhibition explores Katharine Holmes’s stunning modern paintings alongside the work of her mother and grandmother, Phillipa Holmes and Constance Pearson.
All three women lived and worked in the same cottage in Malham, North Yorkshire. The exhibition explores their connections to landscape, people and life in the Dale. Many of the pieces will be on public display for the first time in over ten years, alongside new work by Katharine created for the exhibition.
Selected works by Katharine Holmes will be for sale.
