Whimsical - how to summarise this genre? It's not of this world, but one we know (or hope) exists! How wonderful to open the door into a place of magic and fantasy! Or if you prefer something a little more literal, we give you an intimate view of the everyday world brought so charmingly to life through illustrations.
'Leap of Faith' by Ann Richmond
Ann creates totally unique and unusual pieces - they have to be seen first hand to appreciate the detail that is captured in each depiction. She calls this style 'Magic Realism', and it transports you to an imaginary world of fantasy and wonder that will have you captivated and mesmerised. Ann is based in Ramsbury.
'Glow up' by Charlotte Dryden Kelsey
Charlotte will be exhibiting at St Peter's Church in Marlborough. She is interested in storytelling and capturing a moment or memory in each artwork. This exhibition of work has a strong sense of place and is centred in telling everyday small stories around family and childhood. She works primarily in ink and watercolour with touches of collage and stitched detail.
'Not a Creature Was Stirring' by Chris Dunn
Chris is a watercolour artist and children's book illustrator, influenced by Beatrix Potter, Arthur Rackham and Norman Rockwell. He will be showing a collection of original illustrations, drawings, signed limited edition prints, cards and books, including his illustrated 'The Wind in the Willows' published by Editions Caurette.
