Bethany Holmes
Bethany Holmes’ expressive paintings explore our emotional and physical experience of colour. Central to her process is an understanding of the way in which a palette can carry mood and meaning, enhanced by the physical, almost combative act of applying gestural marks to the canvas. Bethany graduated with a BA in Textile Design from Nottingham Trent University. Her works are held in private collections worldwide.
Bethany Kohrt’s paintings are a visual journey back and forth between the external landscape of her home in rural Wiltshire, and her own internal landscape. Her paintings express feelings of belonging and loss within a place, in a visual language derived from the decorative objects of her childhood in Hong Kong, where Chinese antiques and Indonesian and Japanese indigo dyed textiles dominated her visual world.

Back at her studio, she works on canvas with a limited palette, using intuitive and spontaneous marks to express her emotional response to the landscape. Karen graduated from Coventry University with a BA Hons in Fine Art.

Ruth Shelley
Glass artist Ruth Shelley explores an interplay of colour and pattern which invokes the movement of the solar system, in what she refers to as a ‘helical visualisation of time’. Her circular glass panels of rhythmic colours and interlinking forms reflect her love of the work of Russian born painter Sonia Delaunay.
Internationally acclaimed artist Sarah Hillman creates striking ceramic sculptures influenced by the purity of European Modernism. Her organic forms explore positive and negative space through a changing composition of line, colour and contour. Each piece is made in pure white clay and is hand cut with sweeping curves to reveal a bold and colourful interior.
