The exhibition features paintings inspired by the Pennine Hills which surround Sheila's home, objects seen in everyday life and places visited by the sea, such as the beaches in Anglesey, St Ives and Whitby.

These paintings are worked from a variety of sources, memory and imagination, sketches and occasionally photographic reference material.

In addition to the subject matter, colour and surface texture become important elements in building up the images in a personal and spontaneous way. These paintings are not attempts to copy specific detail but to capture and convey to the viewer a sense of the colour, excitment and discoveries experienced during the working process.
