Petrichor
CHANTAL DE KOCK
We’re in the final week of Petrichor, a beautiful solo show by Chantal de Kock.
Chantal’s paintings are much loved by visitors to Tyger — the kind of works that invite you to slow down and spend time — and this luminous body of work has quietly transformed the gallery over the past few weeks.
Made using earth pigments, the paintings feel deeply connected to landscape and memory, offering moments of calm, reflection and gentle immersion.
If you’ve been meaning to visit, now is the time — Petrichor closes Sunday 8 February.
We’re excited to welcome Jenny Blake back to Tyger for Edge of the Water, a relaxed, hands-on seascape painting workshop on Sunday 22 February.
Jenny is a much-loved landscape painter known for her brilliant use of light, movement and atmosphere. In this workshop, she’ll guide participants through her approach to painting the meeting point of land and sea, sharing practical techniques in a calm, supportive setting.
Suitable for all experience levels, Edge of the Water is a chance to slow down, experiment with colour and mark-making, and spend an afternoon painting alongside one of the region’s most respected artists.
Join us at the table from 1.30–3.30pm at Tyger Gallery. All materials are provided and places are limited.
