“Inspired by her surroundings when her family moved to Pakistan, Ferelith painted from a young age. For the past 20 years Ferelith and her husband, Tim, have travelled extensively in India where she finds the inspiration for her mixed media collages. She has exhibited in London, Hampshire, Scotland & India."
“Studying textile design at Leeds, Mary went on to work for Dorma Textiles, allowing her to direct her creativity. Her caring nature got the better of her and she spent much of her life as a probation officer in south London. This only encouraged her creativity and while working with young offenders to enter art competitions, she entered herself and won. Having now retired, Mary now devotes as much time as possible to painting, taking part in Marlborough Open Studios & working with other artists in Wiltshire.”
“Gill has found inspiration in the idea of the layering of time, sometimes using collage, script and gold leaf to create abstracted forms. She is interested in Middle and Far Eastern Art and Design with its emphasis on tradition and historical references. Prominent themes in Gills works are beauty in decay and creating a visual history, the layering of years revealing and uncovering the influence of the human need to mark, adorn and often destroy that which has come before.”
“Creating art and teaching have been Annie's two main passions throughout her life. Since her retirement from teaching, and her move to France, art has become her focus. She is fascinated by the theory of synaesthesia; the relationship between music and colour. Canvases express the direct reaction to the music played whilst she paints. In her most recent collection, Annie has found inspiration in historical Chinese porcelain painting."
“Bryony has sent much of her life breathing in the day to day experiences of Sri Lanka and then India. Her focus is on people, following their own story. This is something that she's keen for each viewer of her art to see. Beauty is in the small moments of stillness; it is capturing these moments in the constant flux of India & modern life is a challenge that drives Bryony each day.”
“Having travelled America, Australia and the Far East in the early 1980's equipped with only a backpack and a paint box, Charles found himself continually revisiting India and Sri Lanka. Charles creations are often large landscapes and colourful figure compositions, drawing clear inspiration from his travels.”
“Born in Calcutta, Prue grew up surrounded by the British Raj and to this day India is deeply intertwined within her. Having settled in Pewsey, she is still inspired each day by India. The vibrant colours and harsh eastern light have an evident influence on each piece she creates. Prue also takes part in Marlborough Open Studios”
