Barbara Peirson
Narrative permeates Barbara's paintings. Yet her landscapes, and the figures that appear in them, evoke something neither real nor imagined; more a world half-remembered. Barbara paints in the morning, when the world is still quiet and dreams are still lurking. Most mornings she will go walking along the estuary with her sketchbook. Barbara lives in the coastal marshland of Essex where the sea and land merge in mud flats, tidal creeks, and flooded fields providing a continuous backdrop to fleeting moments.
Russell Wilson
Russell's work is eclectic in process and materials, working across many different media including painting, feltwork sculpture, paper, and ceramics. He enjoys the freedom to create in an appropriate media depending on a particular idea, yet all linked by his profound love of nature and the natural world. Originally training in Graphic Design, Russell worked as an illustrator for over 20 years. Now a full-time artist, he works in Derbyshire from a small box room studio and a larger garage workspace.
