Art by Ali

My journey as an artist has been anything but conventional. My initial exploration into creativity began with Fine Art at Plymouth College of Art and Design, followed by illustration at Swindon College’s Oxford Brooks department, where I immersed myself. Focusing on illustration, a medium that allows me to blend my passion for the world around me with visual expression.
The turning point came in January 2022 when I took a leap of faith and opened The Corsham Gallery. This venture not only provided a platform for my work but also allowed me to cultivate a vibrant community of local artists.

Concerns of contemporary life, both political and environmental, have increasingly influenced her work. 'Future Fossils’ and ‘Hopeful Monsters’ are current ongoing series. Bizarre, comical, even disturbing, the artist is confronting consumerism with humour and pathos whilst contemplating a future where material values are upended and what is currently waste is recognized as a valuable resource.

Charlotte Englefield Art

I am a largely self-taught artist with a passion for creating highly detailed, almost photographic artwork. Inspired by the natural world and my surroundings, I work primarily with acrylics, building depth through a meticulous layering process. By continuously pulling lighter tones forward and then softening them with rich, translucent glazes, I create a sense of depth and dimension to my work. I love sharing my techniques during workshops held at my studio.

Cheryl Cork Ceramics

My degree in Contemporary Crafts led me to various processes using clay. Initially slip casting in porcelain, I then moved to hand-building and coiling with various textured clays, wanting to be more organic and spontaneous with form. Inspiration for both texture and colour are found in nature, recently being rock faces and strata. Currently seasonal colours found in nature have inspired a move away from grey and black. My passion for Japanese and Korean ceramics inspires me occasionally to throw footed bowls and enjoy the process of kurinuki.

By capturing areas of light and shade refracted through the water's surface, Chloe draws the viewer into the uncompromising energy, elegant forms and unyielding motion of natures tidal strength.

Chloe Yandell

Throughout the creative journey Chloe uses a variety of mediums to convey a concept. Exploring ideas, techniques and processes are a big part of her work, focusing on texture and mark making. Often the pieces evolve throughout exploration allowing the work to be about materials and their potential. Her abstract pieces are often seen as poetic paintings, a narrative intertwined in an atmospheric landscape. Offering a familiar feeling to each viewer, her paintings transfer a unique memory of place, taking on a different identity each time they are viewed.

Chloë Alexander

I am a semi-retired book designer and when I took on the atelier at New Farm I saw it as a perfect opportunity to get myself away from the computer screen and back to painting and mixed media. So for my pieces I have taken my love of lettering and text and moved it into a physical arena, using cut out letters and paint layers to create small works of quotes and maxims that appeal to me. Perhaps some of them could be hung next to a front door for inspiration before you leave the house...

My inspiration is drawn from walks in the surrounding Wiltshire countryside and the Cornish coastline.

These textile scenes are created using a variety of fabrics, processes and techniques, including dyeing, painting and manipulating.

Delving into my collection of vintage linens and lace,I enjoy bringing age worn textiles back to life. Layering fabrics onto a base, particular attention is given to colour. More texture is added using free motion machine embroidery and embelishment. The final stage adds hand embroidered detail.
In my home - based studio each piece evoles as it is created.

TidalArtUk

The beach is my 'Happy Place'. I love to spend my time on the beach along the coasts of Dorset, Devon, Pembrokeshire and Cornwall collecting driftwood and anything that catches my attention. Hopefully I can transform it into some wall art and enhance the natural beauty of the item.

Clare Duguid

Through the use of oils, ink, and charcoal and a soft, muted palette, my work invites you to step into a peaceful world. It encourages a moment of reflection on the beauty of nature and the quiet charm of everyday objects, offering a chance to appreciate the simple, often overlooked details that surround us.

David Scott

The local architecture and natural landscape have provided abundant source material through which I have explored relief and intaglio print-making techniques. The images evoke a sense of place, both literal and imagined. Form and structure, colour and texture play an essential part in both my print-making and architectural designs.

Dominic Clare

I am a maker of wooden figurative and abstract sculptures based on life, experience, feeling and emotion. I chase the grain by carving, scorching, blasting, and creating large faces or strange curiosities from nature. My work justifies my existence, helps me express myself and find meaning.

With cross-cultural sources from my African birthplace to historical and contemporary Britain, I have always been drawn to ancient art and ritual.

Georgina Szanto

Fused glass is my medium of choice because it offers endless possibilities for exploration, transformation, and expression. Through layering and fusing glass at high temperatures, I create pieces that capture light, texture, and colour in dynamic ways. Each piece is a fusion of both technique and intuition, where molten glass melds into harmonious forms, reflecting the beauty of both organic and abstract shapes.

Heather Stone Ceramics

A collection of strong and distinctive, earthy yet fragile hand-built ceramic forms. A personal vocabulary of textured and expressive surfaces, together with scale, invite physical interaction. A rhythm of creation and destruction persists - of building up and taking away, influenced by all things weathered, broken, changed, dug-up and ancient.

Hetti Dysch

Colourist Hetti Dysch draws on Folk and Naïve art traditions in her diverse body of work.

Hollie Molloy Fine Art

I am an oil painter with a love of birds and animals and the stories that they can tell. I was always taught in writing to ‘Show, not tell’ and I think that translates perfectly into art. To tell a story through one image is something I find exciting. I love the idea of bringing the outdoors into people’s homes with my paintings and I believe that a connection with nature is so important to our mental and physical wellbeing.
In 2024 I exhibited at the Mall Galleries with the Royal British Art Society.

Jane Cross Pottery

Wheel thrown pottery, fired in a wood kiln creates a transformative dialogue between earth, fire, and form. I love the unpredictability of the flames and ash deposits; each piece has a tactile, unique quality where the flames have left their mark. Wood firing, with its labor-intensive process, creates challenges, unplanned textures, and imperfections that are beautiful for their individuality. My goal is to create pottery that reflects how this process is as significant as the finished piece and that beauty can be found in the unpredictability of nature.

Jane Willey

I make functional slip cast pieces in porcelain.

BSPK

I am drawn to the juxtaposition between architectural design and the natural world. With an emphasis on structural forms and organic sculptural contours. The intricacies created and those occurring naturally, continually inspire me.

Art by Joanne Spencer

Bam! My eyes have seen something that my brain has processed, and it’s made my soul sing, my very next thought is “How do I make that into a Lino?” It can be anything, waves crashing against a rocky shore, the quirky design of a VW camper van, or the dreamy colours of the Isle of Skye. My aim is to create a representation of what I saw when I had my “Bam” moment, and hopefully pass on the positive feelings through my artwork.

Wagtail Woodwork

At Wagtail Woodwork, we specialise in one thing; the creation of unique and painstakingly hand-crafted furniture and pieces designed to bring that spark of joy back into the spaces we inhabit.
Each item we make in our rural workshop near Lacock in Wiltshire is the result of a deliberately slow process; a process in which the surprises thrown up by the way in which we work often influence the final piece. Because of the way in which we choose to create, each item that leaves us is truly one of a kind, possessing the kind of uniqueness that is only ever found in things made by human hands.

He is also experimenting with the Raku firing process. He was lucky enough to be a finalist on Series 6 of the Great Pottery Throwdown on C4.

I’m a multi-disciplinary artist working in ceramics, illustration, botanical ink prints and jewellery. I try to connect with my curious inner child by choosing mediums and techniques that I’m drawn to in the moment, going with the flow of creative energy.

My current passions are sculpting creatures with botanical elements and using watercolour illustration as a kind of meditative practice.

Lisa Metcalfe Huntingdon Gallery

Immersing myself in the drawing process I try to capture a simple outline of a natural form through intuition and without correction. It is this initial use of line, which is the essence and starting point of my work. These drawings are then explored through my imagination and combined with a play of shape and colour through various processes.By breaking down an image, into purely line and shape and working on them as separate layers I can play with each layer and manipulate the two elements, in order to create the final reimage.

Lorna Halstead

I was born and live in Wiltshire and I am a self-taught amateur Scratchboard artist. I love the dramatic effect you can create with the light and dark, as well as the fine detail, by using tattoo needles and a scalpel.

Michael Sutherland

Michael's work embraces punchy colour and fragmented form. Using oils and acrylics, his approach to painting is often free-wheeling and improvisational in the early stages and pieces evolve to find structure while allowing the chaos of the beginnings to peek through.

From climate change to war and social unrest, our planet has been burdened by Humans. Samuel uses his art to romanticize about foreign worlds far away. How similar or bizarre would they be? Would there be evidence of civilizations familiar to humans, and how would they have impacted their planets?
