Stable Artists

There are 7 artists/ craftspeople participating in the Stable Artists Open Studio, to be held in the stable, magical walled  garden and  sunny conservatory . The Victorian stable , which was originally connected to the pub next door, is on 2 floors. The walled garden , which is small and secluded, leads to the conservatory which is where you enter.to see an amazing variety of wood turned objects ranging from tiny pestle and mortars and decorative bottle tops to huge vessels and pepper pots designed and made by Roger Marsden. Sculptress Janet Stanley also has her table top balletic sculptures in the conservatory and in the garden beyond are her larger sculptures in bronze resin inspired by nature and Celtic mythology. Upstairs in the stable work ranges fro Wendy Hale’s finely embroiled colourful pictures to Keira Graham’s semi abstract landscapes in silk and a range of personalised cushions and purses, sewing kits etc. Downstairs there are acrylic and mixed paintings of woodland, reflections and plants by Rosalind Moysen which are inspired by her love of colour and texture , and the light boxes of Dawn Thornhill containing magical , backlit scenes in 3 D – using nature as an inspiration in both the light boxes and her prints.Finally there are the stunning ceramics of Beryl Hole whose work varies from an original, contemporary porcelain interpretation of the medium to using natural stoneware and a range of firings including Raku.  The Stables are situated right next to the Prince of Wales pub where you can have a drink or lunch.
