Artist Elisabeth Saguna, is currently holding an exhibition of various paintings at the King’s Own Band Club in Republic Street, Valletta. The exhibition entitled ‘Nature’s Inspirations’, was inaugurated last Saturday the 13th of December, by Dr. Mario Demarco, Parliamentary Secretary for Tourism. This is a venture being held in collaboration with the Philharmonic Society and the ‘King’s Own Band’.

The exhibition is the 11th solo exhibition being held on our islands by Elisabeth Saguna, apart from several other collective exhibitions which Elisabeth regularly participates in. ‘Nature’s Inspirations’ portrays a selection of her works in various media, particularly watercolours and oils on canvas, being the two media which come most naturally to Elisabeth for this style of her works, among the various media she uses to express her art. The title of the exhibition reflects the theme of the paintings which are full of peaceful and serene depictions of scenes and everyday life glimpses, mostly of our islands and our culture.

Elisabeth, whose talent for art appeared during the early years of her life, studied art at the Malta School of Arts under the tutorship of Mr. Joseph Mark Micallef and Mr. Emmanuel Fiorentino while also having worked closely with other local artists such as Ms. Josette Caruana and Mr. Raymond Pitre’. Her various works are permanently exhibited at her studio in Ibrag. Furthermore, her love for art is also reflected in her passion and practice of Interior Design.

The exhibition will remain open daily between 9 a.m. and 11 p.m. until the 5th January 2009.
