Mackintosh-Inspired Exhibitions The artist initially began to develop an interest in the work of Charles Rennie Mackintosh in 2005 when she had her initial floral exhibition at the Hill House in Helensburgh, Scotland. Subsequently, in 2006, she was the first artist to be granted access to paint the Hill House itself. Following the success of these exhibitions, Perina-Miller was offered the chance to paint the interior and exterior of the newly-renovated Mackintosh Church at Queen's Cross in Glasgow. This fascinating building has provided the artist with a powerful source of inspiration for the forthcoming exhibition in June 2008 which promises to take the artist's unique watercolour style in new directions. |
