The Artful Gallery

Once again, David and Lynn Paynter, operating under the banner of The Artful Gallery, are hosting the annual ’Art & Soul’ exhibition at their studio and six acres of beautiful gardens and woodland on Marley Common just outside Haslemere.  21 artists will be showing around 100 pieces of work, including a sculpture trail with works in bronze, resins, wood, glass and mixed media, plus a studio and gallery with indoor sculpture, paintings and drawings.  The event is carefully curated to appeal to all tastes and with a wide range of prices.  This is a very popular event as visitors enjoy the well-tended surroundings and are fascinated by the couple’s unusual contemporary ’Huf’ house.  Although on the periphery of the county, the trip is well worthwhile as there is so much quality art to see in one location.
