EXHIBITORS

Anne-Marie has drawn and modelled animals from an early age. Her travels around the world enabled her to study wild animals first hand, particularly in Africa. Her more recent work is based on the domestic and wild animals that inhabit the Forest around her studio. She shows her work in galleries all over England.

Since my childhood, I have been very creative. I do not like waste… materials that can often appear to not be of any use any more, are my favourites to work with. My most favourite materials are wood with combination of metal and other natural media. I see opportunities to be creative and I love the challenge to design something new and different every time.

Inspired by nature, Veronika creates unique gifts with love and passion. Using non-toxic resin and up cycled bottles mixed with nature beautiful items including wine glasses, coasters and decorative items are created. Living in the New Forest provides the perfect place to forage… different woods, leafs, flowers, stones and feathers are used to produce individual items to cherish.

With a limited palette Melissa likes to use bold and vibrant colours to investigate the patterns and structure of landscapes, tree’s and the architecture of Salisbury. Or in contrast to explore the tonal values of charcoal through portraiture or life drawings.

I paint mostly urban, and semi-urban scenes, mainly in oils. Most of my paintings are of places in, and around Salisbury.

Born and raised in Salisbury, I specialise in acrylic paintings of landscapes and wildlife but I also use mixed media and chalk pastel, focusing on our amazing local places in Wiltshire, Hampshire and Dorset. I am passionate about the natural environment, which I hope shines through in my work

Harriet Bilton makes knitted houseplant pots using sustainable yarns, such as bamboo, which she dyes with foraged leaves and flowers from around her home in Newton Tony. In addition to the knitted pots, she also experiments with cyanotype and printing techniques by transferring botanical imagery onto paper and fabric. A new range of sustainably crafted items are ready for the winter events - perfect ideas for Christmas.

Louise is a water colourist who has enjoyed painting while in lock down. Confined to her garden she was inspired to return to painting flowers and foliage from her garden Her work both in drawing and painting is very delicate with a lovely sense of colour and in a sensitive way her art will give joy to both her and the viewer.
