Please click here to access the show.
Lesley Seeger was born in Newcastle Upon Tyne in 1958 and spent her formative years in rural Northumberland, Scotland and North Yorkshire. Inspired by the natural world she works en plein air and completes work in the studio. Working on up to seven paintings at a time, each body of work includes both landscapes and semi abstract florals whose styles and methods inform and compliment each other. She is to be found, most of the time in the middle of a field with a wheelbarrow full of paints and canvases.
Sally Anne Fitter lives and works on the North Norfolk coast and is a painter specialising in Still life. Her past as a textile designer is evident in her use of pattern and colour and she often incorporates elements of gold leaf and collage into her paintings. A technique of layering and scraping away paint is used to create textured, vibrant paintings which inspire happiness, and her imaginative eye for colour and composition create contemporary artworks which are extremely sought after.
Shirley Vauvelle is an established decorative mixed media British maker, her practice has tended to produce playful component pieces combined with found materials. Assemblages are inspired by creatures, birds and plants. Shirley's art education background and initial design career was in textile/surface decoration. Self taught in ceramics, recently her work has become more abstract and larger in scale and concentrates on form and balance of space as a whole.
