Andrea Rowbotham

My paintings represent a visual paradox of landscape and body. They are a personal integration of 'myself' within the landscape. They are a celebration of the environment, identity, and female strength.

George Hider

I don’t like waste of any kind.  Metal bound for the scrap bin is perfect for my work. I have developed a natural talent to make my sculptures increasingly more lifelike. I want to capture the characteristics of the creatures which unwittingly model for me.

Ursula Newell-Walker

I am drawn inescapably to the immediate moment in which a specific seasonal light gives vitality and mystery to a familiar landscape or domestic space.  Perspective, scale and colour are not simply those the eye sees.  Lines skipping across the surface may guide viewers in, or gesture towards another plane beyond.

Ann Fagan

Although trained as a painter, since moving to Somerset seven years ago, printmaking has become my passion. I find the process of making a print is always challenging and exciting. Much of my work is landscape based, the patterns made by sky, land, water and trees being my main inspiration.

Nicky Clarke

From my very first beginnings in watercolour it was evident that its textual qualities were a fascination. By exploring different techniques I now use them to represent the beautiful landscape surrounding me in Somerset, the light, atmosphere and my passion of trees.
