Writer Amanda C Dickie at Stephen B Whatley Exhibition, Westminster Cathedral. August 2013

Freelance journalist & Catholic writer Amanda C Dickie made one of many visits to see Stephen B Whatley's current exhibition Paintings From Prayer at Westminster Cathedral, London; on its penultimate day (it ends later today, August 22).

 

She is photographed next to one of her favourite paintings, The Assumption of Mary; and today August 22, is the Feast Day of The Queenship of Mary.

 

Miss Dickie discovered the artist's Catholic tributes on a previous showing at St James's Church, Spanish Place, London, when she was sent to review his work for the Westminster Record paper. Writing eloquently and perceptively about Whatley's work she has become a fervent admirer - leading her, as a Friend of Westminster Cathedral to secure this exhibition within the Chapels of St Andrew (pictured here) and St Patrick.

 

Archbishop Vincent Nichols, an admirer of the artist's work and the Cathedral Administrator Canon Christopher Tuckwell warmly welcomed the vibrant show of 30 works; which have been mesmerising the many Cathedral visitors.

 

The colourful and effervescent Miss Dickie is also an actor who has worked in productions with such lunminaries as Sian Phillips and has acted as publicist for CaAPA ( Catholic Association of The Performing Arts).
