I found Dave White’s work whilst looking for watercolour artists, and was immediately drawn to his goldfish paintings. The expressions on their little faces are so delightful! Along with the flicks and scrapes of paint which captures that natural majesty of the often overlooked goldfish.
Jon Shaw and Andrea Mueller
Jon Shaw is an artist who chooses wood for the base of his paintings, which he then applies ink and acrylic to create these writhing and expressive beings. Jon Shaw was suggested to me by another artist, Andrea Mueller, whose work explodes with bright, bold brush strokes and playful imagery.
Catherine Hennessey
Catherine Hennessey and her breathtaking work which consists of mediums such as her own blood! But most of her work is done in less controversial mediums such as watercolour, ink, pen and acrylic.
Sophie Standing
Sophie Standing creates her fauna and flora textile pieces by applying fabric to a canvas where her image is drawn out, she then uses a sewing machine to draw over the fabrics in many different threads to bring the material to life!
Rebecca Stevenson
Rebecca Stevenson’s sculpture are so pretty! Using wax and resin she moulds these intricate flowers into the heads and bodies of animals.
These flowers are coloured to become the instant draw to her pieces. You can also marvel at how wonderfully accurate her wax sculpting is, enabling the viewer to easily identify the animal she’s worked to evoke and to appreciate the intricacy of each waxy petal.
