Who are the Artists you show on a regular basis:
Julie is a mixed media artist working mainly in watercolours, who has a passion for birdlife and wildlife found on her doorstep in the Forest of Dean who also gets distracted by creatures from further afield. Vintage finds, steampunk and childhood memories all help to inspire Julie daily and find themselves wound into the stories behind her unique illustrations.
Tara is a printmaker and mixed media artist inspired by a life long love of animals and with a keen interest the natural world. She explores these subjects mainly through the medium of linoprint and is also developing work in the relatively
unknown medium of paintcarving.
