The debut exhibition of a young artist has opened in Wantage.

John Turner, 21, of Harwell, has painted a series of portraits and landscapes, which are on show in the Vale and Downland Museum.

Mr Turner, who is also a professional magician, said: "This exhibition has given me something to aim for and made me keep producing work. I want people to see what I'm capable of."

The exhibition contains a variety of work in various media, and many pieces are available to buy.

It runs until Sunday, February 17, and can be viewed on Monday to Saturday from 10am to 4.30pm and on Sundays from 2.30pm to 5pm.
