A Richmond bakery has unveiled an art exhibition inspired by the natural beauty in the borough.

The Richmond Hill Bakery, in Friars Stile Road, opened the ‘Richmond Reflections’ exhibition on Tuesday, September 13.

Artist Nadia Day, who grew up in Richmond, said her paintings, which feature ‘bold brushstrokes’ and ‘energetic impressionistic works’, have been selling well since the debut.

Ms Day said: “It was important to me to position my work in a truly local setting for Richmond dwellers, and this bakery near the park and the glorious Turner view of the Thames is always a hub of activity; from dog walkers to parents on the school run.

“It is a bustling lifestyle destination. I am hoping my painted views will catch people's attention in a complimentary way.”

Jo Holland, who manages the bakery, said she wants to make her shop a permanent space for displaying new artwork by local artists.

She said: “I want to introduce local and contemporary artists' work to my clients, celebrating a creative art hub destination.

"I would like to provide a creative environment full of inspiration, celebrating the variety of riches life and art has to offer.”

The exhibition will run until Sunday, October 23.
