Cole Raithby's watercolour composition, Floral Dance, has sold to a local collector who was intrigued by the notion of The Art of Hamilton Gardens exhibition being interpreted as a form of dancing.

According to the gallery exhibition plate, 'the best way to describe Cole Raithby’s art is as a continuous dialogue with the impressionist painters of the late 19th and early 20th century. His three pieces in this exhibition are a distinct pastiche with the early work of Monet and more specifically the pointillism of Georges Seurat. This technique is used to highlight the overarching impression that the grand narrative of the gardens can best be appreciated through the delicate aggregation of grasses and floral representation. A dance'.
