A new exhibition opens at The Village Gallery, Eltham, on August 1.
The title Disparate Visions explains the exhibition well. The two guest artists come from different genres, and their work will combine to produce an exhibition worth viewing.
Dave Adlam is Taranaki born and bred and has lived most of his life in the district. Two years ago he moved to Marton where he is in the process of converting a property into a museum/art gallery.
Dave is a self-taught artist who paints pictures of the things he loves: cars, motorbikes and the mountain. He paints in acrylics on canvas and his style could best be described as nave.
Dave has exhibited his works at other galleries in the district and this will be his fourth exhibition. He says his grandkids are his biggest fans.
