Casey Allum: Coming Home

A new collection of grayscale oil paintings, created solely for this exhibition to mark not only Casey's admiration for the Cumbrian wildlife but also the simple draw one feels for 'coming home'

Carrying over the palette from her usual and well-known graphite pieces, Casey’s new works depict these beautiful creatures in a completely new light, telling the story of a deep routed love of animals; a childhood of saving mice from farm cats, running from accidentally disturbed badgers, chatting with tamed Herdwicks with likings for penny-sweets (especially the fizzy ones), hacking out on the farms shires and endless encounters with all manner of local creatures.
