Jewellery by Kathleen Appleyard
Kathleen's workshop overlooks the perpetually changing River Exe so it should come as no surprise that the inspiration for her beautiful, handmade silver jewellery comes from elements of nature: clean contours produced by the movement of water, whirlpools, windblown choppy surfaces, rustling leaves, meandering rivers and moon glade reflections on quiet water.
New Paintings by Lucy Almey Bird
Three new paintings by the fantastic Lucy Almey Bird have been added to the website.
Born in 1973, Lucy grew up in rural Somerset. She was always encouraged to draw and paint from an early age and was taken on regular trips to galleries and museums, which ignited her passion for art. Lucy is completely self-taught, having not taken the conventional route through education.
She paints mostly in acrylics and takes inspiration from everyday life - especially her three daughters. Domestic scenes feature regularly in her paintings, depicting a romanticised, gentler look at life.

New Paintings by John Brenton
Check out the amazing paintings of our newest exhibitor - the supremely talented Mr John Brenton!
Born 1964 in Cornwall, John has dedicated his painting life to capturing the beauty and drama of coastline and countryside. Often to be found battling the elements en plein air whether it be on a Cornish cliff edge; a tranquil Cotswold river valley; or on the banks of a Scottish loch, his paintings possess a vibrancy and energy that can transport you to those bucolic and diverse locations.
New Paintings by Daniel Cole
We've just added seven gorgeous new paintings to Daniel's page, including the amazing 'The Tide Pushes in Over the Sand', pictured here. Enjoy!
Dan's background lies in illustration and after a Foundation Course at Falmouth he went on to study Scientific Illustration at Blackpool College of Art. After leaving there in 1988 and having won a Readers Digest travel prize, he decided to spend the three months in Brazil where his sole aim was to watch and sketch the birds. Since that time he has been on many field trips to India, Nepal, Australia, New Zealand, Malaysia and Indonesia to capture images through sketching for his own enjoyment and for his work.

New Work by Christy Keeney
Born in Ireland, Christy moved to London in 1984 to study ceramics at the Royal College of Art. After spending 17 years there, he returned to his native Donegal where he now lives and works.
Of his inspiration, Christy says - "I visited a retrospective exhibition of Picasso in the early 80s when I was at college, and many of my influences came from seeing that work. Especially a collection of small cardboard cutout and folded, figurative sculptures. These simple two dimensional pieces opened a world of possibilities on how I would approach my own work."
New Paintings by Tamara Williams
We're delighted to welcome the incredible Tamara Williams to Mid Cornwall Galleries!
Tamara originally studied Graphic Design at Kingston and spent 30 years running her own design agency in London before revisiting the printmaking and painting she so loved at art college; experimenting with different textures and mark-making by working directly onto plaster, wood and natural materials.
Her design background informs and influences each piece, from a love of composition and visual space to the energy and freedom of abstract line work.
