Alex Bell

I am a wildlife artist based in Norfolk. My passion and interest for creating art has always pushed me to understand how to paint. In 2006 I studied Fine art at the Norwich City College for two years which after doing so decided to go and gain an Honours Degree in Games Art and Design at the "Norwich University of the arts. For over 12 years I have painted and developed my own style. Even though I have painted many different subjects over the years I have always been drawn to painting wildlife.

Val Bright Jones

The work expresses feelings and memories of places rather than purely visual appearances. Through plein air drawings and then the physicality of the paint an image emerges creating a certain ambiguity for the viewer to interpret. After a career of secondary school art teaching Val enjoyed returning to college to complete an MA in Fine Art and now devotes her time to further developing her own art practice. The River Stour and Water Meadows are a constant source of inspiration as well as travels further afield to Cornwall, Scotland, Northumberland France and Australia. Peter Lanyon, Joan Eardley, Hockney and Van Gogh are amongst her many influences

Robert Moore

Robert Moore

I'm from Norfolk, studied art / illustration at Norwich and Humberside in the 90's. I discovered 'rolling ball sculpture' as niche form of art 15 yrs ago, and have since taught myself to weld and build my own machines. Since then, I've built pieces for private commissions, museum display, and for medical demonstration purposes. The machines must 'evolve' through continued testing during the construction, giving me (and hopefully the onlooker) a tangible antidote to the digital world we are required to live in.

Rachel Collier-Wilson Creative With Line

I make ink drawings. I also love to explore different ways to portray my sketchy lines using linocuts and monoprinting. Recently with printmaking, I have been enjoying making blocks which are suggestive of book illustrations, but also the more painterly medium of monoprints, the immediacy of the lines created similar to the energy of my ink drawings. As someone who regularly attends life drawing, this results in a balance of work which is often illustrative in nature but occasionally work based on the female figure informed life experiences. Rachel Collier-Wilson been a practicing artist since gaining a BA Fine Art in 1990 from Central Saint Martins School of Art. Rachel creates an emotional response to her surroundings, particularly in nature, highlighting the richness of our natural environment and adding a suggestive narrative. Having always drawn, Rachel is an avid life drawer, sometimes brings in images of the female form into her work. Rachel also continues with her printmaking practice, exploring different ways to portray her sketchy line.

Patrick Wilkins Drawings

Originally from Rochester in Kent, I now live in the Suffolk village of Ixworth. I have always drawn (I have worked in engineering design for 30 or so years) but after a serious illness in 2012 I decided to put more effort into creative drawing. The work of American realist artist Edward Hopper is a major influence, as is Film Noir. I have exhibited at the RA Summer Exhibition (2015), won the 'President's Award' at the UK Coloured Pencil Society Open Exhibition (2017), and 'Best In Show' (Colour) at the Society of Graphic Fine Art Open Exhibition (2019).

Louise Chapman

Louise Chapman

Louise Chapman studied art at Norwich City College and Norwich School of Art and Design in the late 1990’s and began painting seriously in 2014. Louise works in oils on canvas, producing abstract and semi abstract pieces, painting intuitively. The work will go through many changes until she recognises a balance of colour and composition, it is at this point she takes the lead, in what until then will have been quite an organic process, and brings the painting to completion. This is of course an oversimplification of a lengthy process, frustrating, exciting but ultimately very satisfying. Louise explains ‘Colour and the joy of painting are the driving forces behind my work. I want my paintings to grab your attention, to intrigue and draw you in, to wow! Please list any Galleries that currently represent your work (Individual artists or groups only): I have been approached by several galleries, AKAfineart, Atelierbleu, Artdog London but prefer to sell my own work and exhibit regularly and successfully throughout Suffolk/East Anglia

Karen Turner

A figure and portrait artist, my paintings concentrate on women and are a commentary on the weight of expectations placed on the female sex. With a particular focus on the physical body and the scrutiny to which is it commonly subjected, my paintings explore what society expects of a woman, the ways in which her physical shape is often considered to define her, and the impact that this has on her life and sense of self.

Working in oils I build my subject with thin layers, shade over shade, colour over colour. I aim to keep each layer barely perceptible, each one contributing to the whole in ways that can’t always be seen. Colour is crucial as I seek to highlight pigments in the skin that can often go unnoticed, emphasising and sometimes exaggerating them in order that I might accentuate their beauty.

Jane Cochrane

Excited by colour and texture I specialize in painting negatively. This a technique which enables jewel-like transparent colours to shine out of my work, it also forces me to paint in an abstracted style. Adopting this approach has stopped me from being too detailed and has given my work much more life and vibrancy. Whilst I carefully plan my subject, colours, and composition, the magic only happens in the final stages when I add in the opaque lights and the painting emerges from the background.

Bella Bigsby

In her emotive paintings, Bella Bigsby combines tangible elements of the world around her with an imagined nature. She draws on her memories of home, feelings for landscape and a love of myth and fairytale. Animals and birds that have a rich folkloric tradition are particularly intriguing to her as they are infused with layers of human history as well as their own unknowable narratives. For Bella, nature is a separate yet parallel world. She is most interested in the quiet presence of this world, where it touches our everyday one. Familiar birds and trees are to her endlessly rich in beauty and meaning. Having lived and worked in Oakland, California for many years, Bella recently relocated back to her native home of Norfolk, England.

She has exhibited extensively and won several prizes for her work. Susan Lynda Taylor I love colour and texture. I love the beauty of nature and believe colours affect our feelings and mood and has the ability to lift us. When I paint I want to create beauty. I want to look and not just glance but to be able to go back and look again and again and see new things and beauty that I had not noticed before. It is beyond explanation the love which I feel and put into my work and the joy I feel when someone takes one of my paintings home with them because they love it too.

Paul Zawadzki and Ally Zawadzki

Waveney Valley artists Paul and Ally Zawadzki work on the principal of embracing the happy accident; and often share resources – ideas and matter from one piece can kick-start another. Both work in a tactile manner, with Ally destroying initial cement and fabric pieces, transforming them into final artwork, and Paul incorporating oils, unprimed canvas, rusted steel, poured varnish and even detritus from the studio floor. Spontaneous use of recycled and ‘found’ objects also forms part of their practice, which is primarily about the unpredictability of the natural world, looking beneath the surface of the landscape that surrounds us and raising questions about preconceptions and tactile experience.
