I currently have 3 drawings selected for the RBSA Drawing Prize Exhibition which runs from 29 May to 28 June 2025 - see gallery 2.
It is a very good exhibition with a wide variety of drawing styles and subject matter.
Meanwhile I won first prize at Wolverhampton Art Expo exhibition in May.

Sketching at Avebury - chilly but exhilarating! The contact with the landscape, feeling the wind but hopefully still feeling my fingers and toes.
We are thrilled to announce that Linda Nevill will be returning to Ironbridge Fine Arts with an exciting new collection of artwork, set to open in Spring 2025. This eagerly anticipated exhibition will showcase Linda’s latest body of work, which includes a series of oil and cold wax paintings, as well as intricate pieces created with charcoal dust, cold wax, and oil paint on board. Additionally, Linda will be presenting a selection of her stunning works on paper, thoughtfully mounted and wrapped for the browser.
Linda’s artistic process is rooted in her profound connection to the landscape. As a passionate outdoor painter, she delights in sketching and painting in all weather conditions, immersing herself in the environment around her. Her plein air studies – created directly from nature – form the heart of her creative practice. These outdoor sketches allow Linda to capture the pure essence of the landscape, bringing its atmosphere and energy into her work.
For Linda, working outdoors is not just a means of observation but a way to communicate with the land itself. She has a special ability to translate the emotions and sensations generated by the natural world into her artwork, giving viewers a glimpse into her personal experience with nature. Her sketches act as a foundation for her studio paintings, where she brings the energy and feeling of the outdoors back into the studio.
Once inside her studio, Linda transforms these outdoor studies into atmospheric works, layering oil paint with cold wax to build depth and texture. The combination of oil and cold wax allows Linda to create a richness and tactile quality in her paintings, giving each piece a sense of intimacy and presence. Her work feels alive, as though it holds the very spirit of the landscapes she’s observed, a memory of the outdoors that she carries within herself.
Each painting reflects Linda’s unique artistic journey, as she seeks to preserve and share the essence of nature in a way that feels personal and deeply connected. The result is a body of work that is both reflective and immersive, allowing viewers to experience the landscape through Linda’s eyes and emotions.
We are incredibly excited to share this new collection with you and invite you to experience the beauty and depth of Linda Nevill’s work. Stay tuned for more details as we approach the opening of her exhibition in Spring 2025. This is an exhibition not to be missed!
