Isabelle Proffitt Ceramics Isabelle Proffitt Ceramics Isabelle Proffitt Ceramics 1/1 My name is Belle and I am a potter from Bristol. I trained at Clay College in Stoke-on-Trent, an intensive course designed to teach practical and in-depth exploration of the craft of pottery. As much as I shape clay, clay is what shapes me, and influences how I interact with it as a material. I approach my making with curiosity and play, paying close attention to how the clay responds to my hands and tools. I consider how I might encourage the marks of impressed stamps to sweep or fly across a stretched slab of porcelain, or how waves of clay might ripple up a wooden rib. I seek to capture a lively and natural loose energy in my work and I draw greatly from surface quality. Whether throwing or hand building my aim is the same: to capture a sense of movement. The marks that I impress, stretch and cut help to instil a sense of me into the pots I make.

Gemma Lane Painting/Drawing Gemma Lane Painting/Drawing Gemma Lane Painting/Drawing 1/1 My name is Gemma Lane. I studied Fine Art at Oxford Brookes University in the early 2000’s and then became an Art and Photography secondary teacher for 15 years. In the evenings I would explore and experiment with acrylic paint and had one of my pieces accepted in the Bath Fringe Art Exhibition in 2011. I became a mother to 2 boys in 2013 and 2016. After my second son was born I started my business Green Fox Workshops, offering art workshops in Bath, Bristol and Somerset. I now run this full time, teaching people of all ages from ages 7 up to 87. I have returned to oils and some early conceptual ideas from my university days. Preservation, the beauty in decay and that death is inevitable. The painting ‘Beauty in death’ depicts this well and is an area I am going to explore further in my own work. I am interested in the vulnerability and fragile aspects of nature and how this can be shown. I really enjoy being outdoors and seeing the changing seasons and painting with acrylics, watercolour and chalk pastels landscapes that surround me. I love the contrast of the seasons, the intense lushness of the summer, compared to the winter, where everything is dormant and more barren. I take my own reference photos or paint plein air.

Andrew Hardwick Mixed Media Andrew Hardwick Mixed Media Andrew Hardwick Mixed Media 1/1 Andrew Hardwick paints places that are lost or go unnoticed. The unspectacular, the ordinary often waste lands about to be built on. His paintings are filled with these edgeland landscapes, forgotten ruins,remote reservoirs on moorland even the occasional Amazon warehouse The work follows the romantic painting tradition and can be big sometimes over four metres long-sunsets, rain, storms also fill his textured constructions. Andrew also refers to his work as constructions, because typically they use found materials, soils on board, plastics, canvas and roofing materials. As well as of course paint, often decorators gloss. Some of his images evoke the more rural landscape that he remembers from his family farm. Now existing only in his memory or as he says ghost landscapes. The work challenges our complicated relationship with the land.
