Boatyard painting

Artist Chantal Meza was so affected by last year’s devastating fire at Underfall Yard that she is auctioning a painting to raise funds towards its recovery.

Meza, originally from Mexico but now based in Bristol, produced the artwork, entitled The burning embers of hope, at the boatyard and in her studio.

It is on display  until December 8. Bids can be submitted in person at the visitor centre or via a Google form on the Underfall Yard website.

For visitors keen to find out more about the painting, Chantal will be at Underfall Yard Christmas Market on November 30 and December  1 for a ‘Meet the artist’ session.
