Ruth McCabe
There’s still time to see Ruth McCabe’s solo show at The George Farnham Gallery – on until 21 October. This Saxmundham Gallery has recently been awarded 2023 winner for Best Independent Gallery in Suffolk, and Ruth is delighted that Gary and Michael are showcasing her work for ’Shore Lines’.
The exhibition features a selection of oils, watercolours and collage inspired by Ruth’s love of this edgy, vulnerable east coast, and of sea swimming through the year.
