Sue Cave, a graduate of Kingston-on-Thames College of Art, works in oil, watercolour and various drawing media. Her engagement with drawing has been an underlying theme throughout her working life. The magical British landscape and trees are her continuing source of inspiration.
Claire Christie Sadler draws on paper, enjoying the simplicity of means that it offers. She also casts with paper from pulp, subsequently working on the surface. Our transitory lives and that of the world around us are the continuing focus of her enquiry.
Gaby Nutt - Since taking part in an HNC course in textiles and metals, Gaby has continued to investigate her love of colour and form in 3D textiles to 2D compositions involving silkscreen printing with additional textural embellishments, taking her inspiration from Gustav Klimt and Friedrich Hundertwasser.
Colin Robinson has embraced the new technologies to produce giclée prints, mostly collage with a photographic provenance. His current work is about the artificial image of women and is informed by the 60s' pop art movement.
Martin Smith’s sculpture usually takes the human form or organic abstract as a starting point. His glass work exploits decorative and graphic effects. His interests are in the varieties of form, the richness of materials, and the ambiguity of everything.
