Exhibition information
In my Oxfordshire Artweeks 2026 exhibition I’ll be showing my recent paintings which include landscapes, still life and figurative studies. My paintings are autobiographical and often love letters to my favourite things and people. As well as original art there will also be prints and cards available for purchase.
Friday 8th May
I’ll be hosting a Private View at my studio on Friday 8th May. At this pre-opening event guests can view and purchase work before the general public. If you’d like to be invited to this event please email me at challyspokes[at]gmail[dot]com with your contact details.
Saturday 9th May: Drawing Day, 10am – 6pm
On Saturday 9th May, I will be opening my garden for a free drawing day. Artists and enthusiasts of all levels are all welcome to this untutored drop-in session. Come over with your pencils or paints and let’s create some beautiful artwork. It’ll be a fun and relaxing day, so don’t miss it!
Artist information
Challoner Spokes is a painter living and working in Oxfordshire. Using bold colour, her work is concerned with the line that interrupts hues to define shape and objects. Her paintings are representational though not bound by reality.
Challoner has a BA Joint Honours degree from University of Kent and she mainly works in oil, acrylics and oil pastels. Her work is autobiographical and responsive to the feeling of a moment. Colours and perspective are oversaturated to express the emotion of an experience.
As well as an experienced visual artist, Challoner has spent well over a decade in creative education and training for adult learners. She delivers comprehensive drawing and painting courses and workshops.
Challoner’s original paintings and fine art prints are held in private collections in the UK, Netherlands and USA.
