GRIT AND GRACE showcases the stunning works of John Clinock and Val Armstrong, who met at 360XQMX over a year ago, and have been painting together ever since. For both John and Val, it’s an experiment of sorts. Neither has exhibited work generated through a coming together of creative processes that promotes sharing despite very different styles. And yet, it seems this particular union is destined to generate synergy, beauty, personal healing and storytelling knit together through their shared Celtic heritage and deep British roots.
