Butterflies - by Paul Steer. Exhibition at Riverside Centre

Tuesday 6th September saw the opening of the first exhibition at the Riverside Centre. 'Butterflies' by Paul Steer is a collection of life-sized paintings on plaster of native butterflies and their caterpillars. These small and exquisite paintings showcase the diversity of our butterflies and their colours and patterns.

Alongside the paintings is a short series of photographs by Eleanor Flaherty, showing the beauty of the plants that are considered weeds, but are essential to the caterpillars' and therefore to the survival of the butterflies.

Information on the butterflies and their habitat and what we can do to preserve it, has been provided by
Butterfly Conservation.

The exhibition runs from 6th to 17th September
