“I always want to find a space to house another work by one of Thackeray Gallery’s artists.
Their artists’ works on our walls delight us every day.”
Kit Kemp, 2025

MATTHEW SNOWDEN : 13 – 30 January 2026
We are delighted to announce Matthew Snowden’s fifth solo show at Thackeray Gallery. Matthew creates astonishing textural works on canvas of incredible landscape scenes that are both dynamic and powerfully moving.
“Being an intuitive artist, I like to leave room for the unpredictable while I am working, allowing the viscosity of the paint to dictate where the painting is heading and at the same time not lose sight of the subject and overall feel. In the end, I am happy when I have achieved a genuine portrait of place, and have captured what I feel to be the true nature of a landscape.”

FIONA MCALPINE : 10 – 27 February 2026
We are delighted to announce Fiona McAlpine’s fifth solo show at Thackeray Gallery. With her instinctive and colourful palette, Fiona paints vibrant and decorative oils depicting the landscape that surrounds her, flowers from the garden and the general chaos on her kitchen table.
“When I’m painting, I love to dance across the canvas, with intensely colourful brush marks, creating an image of my feelings for the landscape and interiors where I live and work.”
