Val Hepplewhite Paintings and drawings
Music and industry have always had a strong influence
on my work. I worked as a teacher and freelance
designer in Wiltshire until 1986. My work emanates
from the love of the figure, structure and fabric,
working in a variety of media including oil, watercolour,
pastel and charcoal. Love of fabric has culminated in
new work of brightly coloured paintings on silk, chiffon
and velvet.

Richard Olver Paintings
My pictures celebrate the beauty of the natural and man
-made world. Abstract expression and the freedom from
from constraints of literal representation offer opportunities
to explore texture and interactions of colour and form.
My paintings aim to lift the spirit and promote a sense
of harmony in a discordant world.

Lucy Owen Paintings
I start by making spontaneous gestures and the ideas
gradually emerge from the mark-making process.
Although I have no preconceptions about the end piece
there is a common theme atmospheres of time and
place. Associations and connections are formed
without conscious intention.
