There's just a few days left left to catch a major exhibition showing more than 100 of JMW Turner's works.
JMW Turner: Adventures in Colour at the Turner Contemporary in Margate, closes this coming Sunday.
The exhibition is the fullest survey of the artist's watercolours of Margate yet to be shown at the gallery.
It is also the first to examine the fundamental theme of colour in Turner's work, exploring the familiar outline of his life and art in a new way and features works in both oil and watercolour.
Visitors are able to view his distinctive and at times eccentric use of vibrant colour, which was central to his success as an artist.

It is one of five exhibitions closing at the gallery on Sunday, January 8.
Vertigo Sea by John Akomfrah, which also closes on Sunday, is a film shot on the Isle of Skye in the Faroe Isles and in the North of Greenland and Norway, inspired by two books - Moby Dick by Hermand Melville and Whale Nation by Heathcote Williams.
The Making of Haze, Helen Caddick, a film by Phil Miller, tells of the making of the musical composition Haze, inspired by five of Turner's paintings across 20 years of his life.
Turner Contemporary and the British Museum Commission: Hannah Lees, also closes on the same date and is a new work in response to the British Museum’s collection of Roman Samian Ware pottery found along the coast near Whitstable.
Finally, an exhibition of works by the semi-finalists in the 2016 Sky Arts Landscape Artist of The Year competition, with the National Trust, features works created on Margate’s Harbour Arm, where the artists had four hours to produce a painting.
