The graceful depiction of birds, above, is among the art works on display in a new exhibition celebrating diversity.

I’m sharing some of the pieces here because I was taken by the broad range of subjects and contrasting styles of the artists. Most of the pieces are inspired by nature and natural landscapes.

The paintings were created by participants in the Nexus project, run by care organisation Surrey Choices, and are being exhibited at the Sunbury Embroidery Gallery until March 1 (entry is free). Nexus provides specialist support and activities for adults with physical disabilities and mild learning disabilities.
