Renowned local artists Tina Rawson and Rebecca Klementovich have embarked on a captivating project: capturing the essence of the Pink House, a beloved landmark in our community, on canvas. The house is nestled  amidst the sea marshes of Newbury, in solitude like a Whistler’s house painting.  The  house boasts of  a rich history dating back to at least 1925 and has witnessed the passage of countless lives and stories within its walls.

Rebecca Klementovich is known for her evocative brushstrokes and ability to imbue her art with a sense of abstraction . Pink is a signature color. 

Tina Rawson has  explored themes of Swedish folk art through her heritage. Tina aims to not only portray the house’s architectural beauty but its aliveness. Both have made painting this amazing pink House an important subject matter to be painted.
