Hayley Jones Sculpture Hayley Jones Sculpture Hayley Jones Sculpture 1/1 Hayley Jones. A professional Artist living and working in Clevedon, North Somerset, I diversified from painting into 3d wire sculptures in 2014. I use a variety of single strand wires in coloured copper, galvanised and stainless steel to create intricate animal and bird forms many of which are mounted on old wooden posts. My work sells nationally and internationally and I was commissioned to make my first Public piece in 2021 by Willmott Dixon Construction Company, to make a large sculpture of a Sea Eagle for a New School in Yatton, North Somerset. One of largest pieces to date is ‘Spirit’, the stainless steel Horse standing about 9 foot tall.

Jenny Urquhart Painting/Drawing Jenny Urquhart Painting/Drawing Jenny Urquhart Painting/Drawing 1/1 Jenny Urquhart's journey from a biology teacher to self-taught artist is one of joy and self-discovery. She started painting in 2010 and since then her work has been hung in galleries and homes all over Bristol and the Southwest. Having had no formal training, Jenny has experimented with many styles and techniques, but her sources of inspiration are always drawn from warm memories and a deep connection to nature. Jenny’s academic background in life sciences adds a unique perspective to her art and this connection with the living world is evident in the themes and motifs she explores in her paintings. Despite living in an urban environment, her memories as a child growing up surrounded by countryside heavily influences her paintings and her work consistently portrays happy feelings of rural nostalgia and tranquillity.
