Porthleven 100

19TH SEPTEMBER - 2ND NOVEMBER 2026

FREE ENTRY


Porthleven 74 (Storm Eye) by Ashley Hanson

This Autumn we are celebrating Ashley Hanson’s milestone 100th painting in his long-running series exploring the Cornish coastal town, Porthleven.

A small town with only a few thousand residents, abstract painter Ashley Hanson depicts Porthleven from all angles, representing everything from the clock tower to the local pub. His thickly textured paintings make great use of gesture and movement to capture the thrum of energy that is apparent in the town, his bold use of colour amplifying the impact. Known for its sweeping sunsets where the sun cuts right down through the centre of the harbour, his paintings often immerse you in deep warm tones reflecting this sumptuous view.

KMA Gallery is pleased to host a rich selection of paintings from this vivacious and enigmatic series, curated by Kellie Miller.

Barnaderg (Red Gap) II by Barbara Burns

Beckoning in the rich tones of Autumn, Barbara Burn’s unctuous oil paintings embody the weight of the changing seasons.

Entitled Barnaderg (Red Gap), this latest series of work is inspired by the peatland and bogs of Western Ireland, wherein her thick, dark buttery layers evoke a sense of buried history and the words of poet Seamus Heaney.
