Nikki paints using a  mix of acrylics, oil pastels and collage.  Landscapes and seascapes are her main subject matter, creating memories of these in a quirky manner, where figures and animals may appear in the work. Inspiration also comes from the everyday…the weather, a colour that catches her eye, a situation. She paints on board […]

I specialise in semi abstract, colourful and expressive images that reflect my love of gardens and the countryside. Always colourful, they are usually textured and I often use gold paint and inks in the detail. With my floral works I aim to capture the spirit of flowers and the pleasure they give while my landscapes are about […]

Memory is still-life art in the making –  the concept at the heart of Rosanne’s Barr’s work.  In a word, flashback. Rosanne explores and captures the mood, emotion, colours of a place, a landscape filtered through the sands of lapsed time. These are imagined places – her Lands of Escape – but based on direct experience of the […]

Then she never picked up a paintbrush or pencil for the next 25 years, preferring PR, marketing and the occasional bit of interior design to satisfy her creativity. A […]

Hares wait under windswept trees, bees and humming birds feeding on heavy blossom. A silhouette of a fox on the horizon, big eyed owls watching. A continuing story of enchanting collectable artworks, all set against a gilded background. Each original piece is handmade by Sally in her studio on the remote Hebridean Isle of Mull […]
