From There to Here by Mark Sutherland

Although well known for his sculpture, he has been painting and drawing figures and portraits for the past 30 years. Since 1998 he has been exhibiting and selling predominantly nudes and portraiture done traditionally in oil, as well as sensitive and atmospheric drawings and paintings done in a wide variety of media. Mark treats each of his works as a voyage of discovery. He is not afraid to experiment with media and process, believing that this is vital for the continued development of any artist.

'Birds, Flowers, and Fruit of the World' by Annie Soudain

Annie was one of several artists from the South-East selected to contribute work for the cabins of a refurbished Saga cruise ship, the Saga Rose. She was also commissioned to paint three large panels for a bar area, and later, three even larger panels were commissioned and installed, depicting 'Birds, Flowers, and Fruit of the World'. Annie Soudain enjoys painting in watercolour, gouache, and silk dyes (wax-resist); also printmaking — mostly linocuts, using various techniques. Fabric collage is another favourite medium.

Pixels and Paintstrokes by Dave Smith

‘I’m very much looking forward to the day when canvases come preloaded with imaging software. No cleaning of brushes laden with chemical pigment; no disposing of print cartridges; no excessive paper output – how green is that? In the meantime, as a habitual 'drawer', I’ll continue working in two contrasting media that work together to give me as broad and flexible canvas as I need to record my visual ideas and observations.'

Prints by Stan Rosenthal

Because of his informality and friendliness, it is easy to forget that Stan Rosenthal has long been an artist with an international reputation. While he was still at college, he was teaching others and later exhibited with such famous painters as Marc Chagall, Ben Shahn and Sir Jacob Epstein. His work is characterised by the use of bold, primary, colours. Click on the images to view larger versions.

Portraits by Elena Priestley

Elena’s work shows a competent maturity of styles, technique and composition linked with a youthful and vivacious though sensitive portrayal of her subjects. She can use her brush to create delicate and subtle or bright and strident studies of the people around their character and spirit. A lasting legacy of a family member, your baby, children, your darling cat or dog, your lover ..... Elena can deliver! Click on the images to view larger versions.

Observations by Gordon Fowler

Lived in Canterbury city centre for 30 years he was a well travelled eccentric who never followed a conventional career; a prolific painter, sculptor, writer and raconteur whose play "Fall in Corporal Moyes" was perfomed in Covent Garden "He had about him the qualities of Whistler and would have enjoyed the company of Degas and the milieu of fin-de-siecle, Paris. Sickert and the painters of the Camden Town Group were also to his taste and often with wistful look and eloquent rhetoric, he would conjure up some scene or other where all these great names would be acting out their part."

an Afinity with Oils by Jennifer Evans

Torn between studying fine art or biological sciences at University she chose the latter, but continued to paint and exhibit throughout her BSc in Psychology and Cognitive Neuroscience. Although a keen draughtswoman, Jennifer has found an affinity with oil paint and produces her most dedicated works using oil on canvas. Her work revisits certain themes, often using the striking visual effect of a silhouette: a tree, a dark figure, a black fish caught in a glass... She explores the contradictions of time in painting, using still or moving subjects that range from the ever-changing sky and it's clouds to the stillness of folded cloth.

Beauty, Energy and Emotion by Jereme Crow

The artist Fernando Botero said: “An artist is attracted to certain kinds of form without knowing why. You adopt a position intuitively; only later do you attempt to rationalize or even justify it.” So to attempt to explain my paintings would be an after thought. They are a celebration and exploration of the beauty of colour and the human form. I am attracted to dance as a source of inspiration because of the endless compositions created by the human form. The beauty, energy and emotion that is captured through movement. Art is beauty. Capturing a feeling, or an idea and through the use of a subject attempting to create something beautiful.
