PAINTINGS, DRAWINGS, PRINTMAKING & CERAMICS

ANN JOHNSON – Ann has worked with poets, printers and textile artists and her art has appeared in books, magazines and galleries around the country. Several of her paintings have been hung at Royal Academy Summer Exhibitions and her work is mostly in private collections.

From a background in journalism and animal advocacy she has discovered new ways of articulating a love of words, of drawing and painting and the natural world. Ann never includes human figures in her work saying, ‘I prefer to simply suggest evidence of human habitation. Abandoned garden forks, bits of trellis and buildings in stages of disintegration contribute not only exciting and contrasting marks to a composition, these also project mysteries and stories of the past inhabitants.’

Wild Margins, Drawings and Inspirations was published in 2016. In 2024, Wild Margins 2, After the Storm (WM2) was produced, which focuses on the River Wye the challenges faced by our waterways. Both titles are available to buy at The Art Shop during the exhibition. WM2 is a signed limited edition of 200 copies.

SOPHIE WAKE – Tim studied Studio Ceramics in Falmouth graduating in 1998. He produces one-off pieces and repeat ware using high-fired stoneware clay, which are gas and wood fired.
