A COLLECTION of 34 paintings by artist Susan Wilson was unveiled at the Haworth Art Gallery, Accrington, at a weekend preview morning.

The selection of self-portraits and paintings of landscapes and everyday objects is part of an exhibition which will run at the gallery until February 25.

The event was attended by Mayor of Hyndburn Doug Hayes and, despite delays on the trains from London, New Zealand-born Susan also managed to put in an appearance and talked to guests about her work.

She will return to the gallery in February to take an adult art master class on Saturday 10th and Sunday 11th.
