Printmaking And Textiles

Finally, the printmakers, who have to think backwards as they design their images (imagine that?), and the textile specialists who stitch life into material and tell stories with their work.

Jane Temperley – printmaker

The beautiful rural location near Jane’s home in Heddington provides the inspiration for her artwork. She mainly uses monotype methods of printing as it allows a more expressive approach to her prints. Core themes of Landscapes, Birds, Fish, and Flowers are revisited often.

Bronte Adam - printmaker

Bronte specialises in relief printing; her preferred method of printing is lino and woodblock. Bronte is a nature enthusiast and her prints bring to life galah cockatoos perched in eucalyptus trees or plump ripe grapefruits nestled in leaves. She studied printed textiles and surface pattern design at Leeds Arts University; the bold stylised foliage and strong colours are a note to her discipline. Her work will be shown in Marlborough at the Studio of Alison Bowyer.

Ann Louise Smith – mixed media and textiles

This year Ann is taking inspiration from the abundance of colours and shapes found whilst walking in the countryside and woodlands near her home. Ann loves mixing painting, printing and stitch to create the rich textures and patterns seen on plants, trees and lichen. At the studio in Marlborough you will be able to see art cards, covered artists sketchbooks and hand painted and dyed accessories.”
