Penny DeCorte Ceramics
I am a ceramic artist producing sculptural art designed to be sited in the domestic market and inspired by animal life, nature’s spirals and fossils. Working with a mixture of contemporary style and traditional methods I am continuously challenging my creative skills and fulfilling a passion for working with clay. Inspiration is achieved by researching a subject that captures my imagination. Through design and the stripping away of the distraction of detail I create my own recognisable style of fluid sensuous form. The hand-built forms are often highly burnished and smoke-fired to achieve individual markings, generating a tactility that begs to be touched and enjoyed.

Bruce Kendall Traditional Oils
Bruce Kendall was born in 1948 in Swillington, Yorkshire. Entirely self-taught, Bruce first became aware of the beauty of the English landscape when, as a child, he was taken to visit National Trust properties, estates, and art galleries by his parents. Bruce specializes in landscapes and moonlight scenes and also paints seascapes and the occasional still-life. Bruce Kendall is influenced by artists such as William Benjamin Leader and by the Pre-Raphaelites William Holman Hunt and Ford Maddox Brown. Bruce's work is bought by many collectors across Yorkshire, and his paintings are in private collections as far afield as Italy, Germany and Japan.
Rhona Rowley Watercolours & Pastels
Having painted for many years my work has developed into an emotional interpretation of my chosen subject, be it landscape, flowers, animals or still life. Now living in the Yorkshire Wolds, I look forward to developing an understanding of this new landscape, capturing the light, mood, and tone of the changing seasons.
Debbie Marsh Glass Fusion Artist
My work is inspired by the enchanting properties of the glass I use ~ The vibrant colours, the way it captures the light, reflecting colours and changing as the light alters. I create original Glass Art pieces which are framed and ready to hang, decorative glassware as well as glass silver jewellery. Commissions are welcome

This exhibition is dedicated - in fond memory - to one of our founding members, Mary Hall, who died in December 2012.

Steve Dove Acrylics
My paintings encapsulate the East Riding of Yorkshire’s undulating Wolds whose fields of colour and texture cover the land like a giant patchwork quilt. I also take inspiration from the coastline of hidden villages with their colourful cobbles and narrow streets as well as the seaside towns, their harbours crammed with fishing boats. Once described as naive cubism, my work is bold in colour and imagery, often with a strong narrative I paint mainly in acrylic and derive inspiration from the present and my past.
