Meet The Artists


Debbie Page
Debbie is a handbuilding potter; her main influences are Korean and Japanese pottery with their strong simple shapes. She specialises in Moon jars - spherical vessels inspired by the iconic Korean Moon Jar and tall vessels, Pails, with found wooden handles, influenced by Japanese pottery. She explores the possibilities arising from the combination of glaze and smoke working together- using raku, standard kiln and smoke firing techniques.


Jo Lillywhite
Joanne Lillywhite is a painter who is inspired by the landscape and woodlands of Oxfordshire and beyond. She loves to paint scenes with strong lines and perspective that draw the viewer in to the scene. She represents the world in an interesting and bold way, using varied marks and brushstrokes and heightened colours. Layers of colour make her paintings unique and striking.


Gerry Coles
My linocuts reflect my affection for the British countryside. I walk my dogs along the footpaths and fields where I live, so my inspiration is the animals, birds, flowers, trees and the changing seasons.
I enjoy the challenge of rendering a picture using bold shapes and few colours, I think Linocut is the perfect medium for showing this off.


Amanda Nester
Following a degree I graphic design & illustration and working as an illustrator I am now figurative fine artist painting in watercolour and oils. My detailed work embraces the intricacy and beauty in the world around us.
