Zoe grew up on the south coast of Cornwall. Her grandmother was a painter and inspired her from a young age to take an interest in art.

Each of her fantastic paintings explores a unique view of the shore. Abstract patterns and textile qualities emerge from the crowds, buildings and beach paraphernalia, creating a painterly impression of our beaches.

The painting seen here is of Polkerris Beach, in Cornwall.

Howard was born in Carshalton, 1965.

He started woodturning in 1991 and promoted his work through craft fairs around the country. During this time he undertook various commissions producing architectural pieces and furniture restoration work, including presentation gavels for Sotheby’s.

Howard is now exhibiting his gorgeous work in galleries in the UK and abroad.

"My love of natural history has inspired much of my work. All my materials are obtained from British woods and gardens and only from green sources."

Steve's enjoyment and early instruction in woodwork came from his father and uncles. They were raised in a mining community where making and mending things wasn’t a hobby; it was just what you did by necessity. For Steve, it became a passion and a means by which to express himself creatively.

The utilitarian roots of his creativity probably account for his need to make things that have a function as well as an aesthetic appeal.

John has been creating ranges of jewellery in partnership with his wife Dawn for over twenty years.

The beautiful pendant pictured here is part of their Pebble Range, which is created by combining glass powder with a synthetic polymer. This composition ensures the pieces are robust and long-lasting while remaining incredibly lightweight, making them very comfortable to wear. Each piece is hand-finished with liquid gold leaf, imparting a luxurious quality and a touch of elegance.
