Featured Artist: Elaine DAVIS
Elaine Davis was born in Irvine in Scotland.She completed an ONC in Art and Design at
Cardonald College, Glasgow, in 1992.
Elaine lives in a small village in the heart of
Ayrshire on the West Coast of Scotland.
She works mainly with oils and acrylic oncanvas and draws inspiration for her
paintings from the Scottish countryside.
There is a wonderful sense of light and
colour in Elaine’s work and her paintings
evoke memories of long summer walksalong wooded pathways. She takes the
viewer through shaded areas of woodland
and into illuminated open spaces which canbe common and familiar to the surroundings
in which we live in.
Elaine says: ”The vast array of textures andthe endless variety of colours to be found in
the natural world are the things that
fascinate me. Whether it be woodland,rockpool or ripples in a river – or the way the
changing light of the different seasons can
completely transform a scene from a gamut
of gold and yellows to a profusion of violetand blues”.

Mark Hickman was born in Wordsley, West
Midlands in 1979. He gained a BA Honours in
Fine Art at Leeds Metropolitan University in2001 and completed a Postgraduate Diploma
in Fine Art at Goldsmiths College, London in
2005.
Artist Statement: ”After spending a decade
producing concept based paintings, I decidedupon a radical change and in 2011, embarked
upon producing a series of paintings exploring
a different set of values.
After studying and living in London the beauty
of the city became obvious and although I nowlive in the West Midlands, I frequently return
to visit, sketch and photograph the city through
its landmarks. I have gradually become
interested in atmosphere, natural and artificiallight. Most recently I have become concerned
with attempting to capture a sense of
temperature”.

Carrick SIDDELL
Carrick Siddell was born in Sutton Coldfield,
West Midlands and travelled extensively as a
child – spending many years growing upbetween America and Spain. He studied Fine
Art at the University of Wolverhampton
graduating with a BA Honours Degree in 2002,
followed by a PGCE in Art and Design fromManchester Metropolitan University in 2005.
Carrick’s passion is painting. He has recently
produced a series of city scapes influenced by
his travels in the UK and Europe. His
preferred medium is predominantly oil, but healso uses acrylic and digital media.
Artist Statement: “The themes in my paintings
have changed with time, but the one thing that
interests me the most is light. Shadows
become almost as solid as the objects theyare cast onto. I like to look out for the
overlooked aspects in a city scape and I find
that painting from intuition and instinct is morerewarding than relying on technical
knowledge.

Cornish jeweller Lawrence Gibson undertook a
one year Art and Design Foundation Course at
Falmouth School of Art and gained a NationalDiploma in 1991. He subsequently pursued a
three-year degree course in Industrial Design
and gained a First Class Degree with Honoursfrom Cardiff Institute of Higher Education in
1994.
Upon returning to Cornwall Lawrence took up
a position at a local model-making business
where he learnt new techniques andprocesses. During his four-year employment,
and needing an outlet for his creativity,
Lawrence realised that he could utilise hisknowledge and skills to produce forms based
on an ongoing collection of sketches. These
forms were inspired by the Cornish coastline
with its beautiful coves, beaches and fishingharbours were stepping stones to the creation
of Lawrence’s unique range of “ocean
jewellery”.
Each piece of jewellery is handmade using a
base metal of high quality pewter, which iscompletely lead and nickel-free. The pewter is
sourced in Cornwall and most of Lawrence's
jewellery designs incorporate coloured resindetail. Several pieces also feature beads,
which are carefully selected and ethically
sourced from fair trade suppliers.

Lesley Alexandra FREWLesley Alexandra Frew is a designer-maker
based in Belfast, Northern Ireland. Shegraduated from the University of Ulster in 2007
with a BA (hons) in Fine and Applied Art,
having specialised in Textiles.
Lesley creates contemporary jewellery using
discarded plastic bags. Her interest lies inethical and sustainable making and by
selecting raw materials that would normally be
destined for landfill, she transforms and givesthe materials a second life.
Lesley says, “I enjoy confronting people’sexpectations by taking a discarded material,
giving it a new value and revealing it’s capacity
for beauty. The plastic goes through anumber of processes that include layering,
heat bonding, cutting, folding and hand
stitching. The bags are transformed into a
versatile material that is colourful, soft,lightweight and durable and the jewellery
created is innovative and contemporary”.
