Living and working in the Somerset countryside gives me endless inspiration and my love of gardening has lead me to create a wide range of designs that combine practical and aesthetic qualities. Plant supports that are functional but also pleasant to the eye. Left to weather naturally to give a more organic appearance that blends beautifully with the planting scheme of any garden.  A fire dish that will keep you warm and add an attractive feature to your patio even when it’s not in use. Other pieces are simply designed to add another dimension and focal point. Changing with the weather and light they will always attract your attention and complement their natural surroundings.

Lynn enjoys working in both two and three dimensions and works with both hot and cold glass using its unique optical qualities as a means of expression and communication. Her work revolves around the underlying themes of ‘movement and change’ and much inspiration comes from the Lincolnshire Wolds, an area of outstanding natural beauty where she both lives and works.  Here, glass daisies glisten with droplets of rain after a passing shower and remind us how important water is both to us and the survival of our planet.  The glass butterflies remind us of the fragility of life.  

Christine makes stone classical and modern female figures, animal and water features, garden sculpture and statuary. She specialises in figurative garden sculpture with a personal and authentic touch. 
Christine sculpts in either clay or wax. Her figurative work is always directly from observation. She says: “I love natural forms, really looking and understanding the structure, the volume, the weight and the balance. If you get all these things right then the result is always beautiful and pleasing.” Christine produces her work either in cast stone, bronze resin or bronze.

Mike studied sculpture in Bridgnorth, Shropshire, for over two years, after retiring from a 32-year career in engineering design and manufacture. He has also studied wax modelling, moulding and casting at West Dean College. He manufactures his own moulds and cast pieces in plaster, cement fondue and terracotta, and has work cast in bronze or other metals by a specialist foundry. His latest work is in stainless steel and explores the essential elements of plant forms. All this work is of a welded construction and is designed for external display within the garden environment, or as indoor arrangements.

Kevin is a professional archaeologist and member of the Royal British Society of Sculptors. I have worked in various art forms over the years, but found the permanence of stone particularly rewarding. Following my excavations in Canterbury Cathedral in 1993, and with the encouragement of the cathedral’s stone masons, I started carving stone after being immersed in medieval architecture for over six months. Once familiar with the material MY medieval-style sculptures soon gave way to more personal, dynamic forms before progressing to pieces influenced by microscopic life.

I am a steel sculptor with a passion for understanding the world around us.  I am intrigued by the varied forms nature has created and love understanding how everything interacts, from the intrinsic properties of nature at molecular and biological levels, up to theories of our universe.  Being brought up on a farm I have a particular interest in learning practical skills, I taught myself to weld old machinery parts together and unintentionally found this ability.  A Bachelors in Civil Engineering taught me to visualise and understand the forces and tensions involved in construction.  Interacting with our environment and seeing it from varied perspectives, both on the farm and in my hobbies, gives me a fascination with the complexities of our world. www.willcarrsculptures.co.uk

Martin is a figurative artist working in clay who has his work produced in bronze and bronze resin. He says: “I try to produce powerful dramatic sculptures with a beauty of form. Sculpture should be tactile, making the viewer want to interact physically as well as visually. With a lifetime fascination with the way the body moves, I find myself drawn to dancers, especially contemporary dance rather that classical ballet. I enjoy the challenge of capturing the essence of movement, balance and tension with a static sculpture.”

Clay gives me the means to combine, express and enjoy my interests in plants, landscapes and texture.  I focus on making sculptures and planters for garden use, firing them to stoneware temperatures so that they are frostproof.  Colours are soft, natural and muted, intended to complement plants rather than compete with them.  Surfaces are carved, polished, scraped or sometimes inlaid with a contrasting clay, with occasional use of glazes.   As all pieces are individually handbuilt and decorated, no two can ever be identical, and that is very important to me in this age of mass-produced uniformity.

Angela has created a collection of elegant sculptures based on the female form. Originally specialising in ceramics, she now uses a range of materials including bronze and bronze resin.
She has an unnerving skill in depicting the female form in all of its glory, somehow capturing the modern idiom, whilst at the same time preserving the traditional values of classical figurative sculpture. Angela captures the poise and elegance of the catwalk model and the essence of seduction within the semi-naked figure.

Andrew Flint’s sculpture is positioned somewhat elusively between the abstract, and the figurative. His work is mainly concerned with capturing the qualities that we instinctively respond to in the human figure and the natural world. Never directly imitating his subject, but instead distilling the evanescent into formal compositions that have a visual strength, and a satisfying intimacy. The resulting compositions resonate with our intuitive sense of order, a direct but visceral communication to our inner sense of being. A quietly potent voice, that speaks eloquently of our shared humanity.

Lynette began her career as a commercial artist and later developed an interest in sculpture and contemporary stained glass. However it is an interest in kiln-formed glass that has resulted in her exploration of different glass forming techniques. Often taking inspiration from nature there is frequently a uggestion of fluidity and movement within her work.

I am a mature student about to start my BA at Weston Campus affiliated with Bath Spa University. Four years ago I developed a love of ceramics which has grown into the figurative forms I make today. My inspiration comes from the freedom I experienced as a child as I played in the woods imagining creatures of folklore hiding behind the trees.Today I make these forms that sends a message sometimes of concern about the environment and society we live in today.

I hand build sculptural pieces for the home and garden using coiling and slab building techniques. I build up complex surfaces for my architectural pieces by rolling the clay into a range of textured surfaces and emboss it using found objects. I subsequently carve into the surface before glazing up to three times in order to create a rich patina. I enjoy working from a wide variety of subject matter, with recent sculptures based on the figure, architecture and natural forms. However, underlying much of my work is a fascination in artefacts from the past such as ancient Chinese bronzes, medieval carvings and pre-Renaissance biblical imagery.

Daren usually works in steel, often using bicycle parts. He also works with other materials, such as polymers, if appropriate. Daren enjoys the challenge of taking everyday objects and reinterpreting them in new and unexpected contexts, elements which are expressed strongly in his metal sculptures. He says: “I individually hand make my own designs. These are completely original, unique and immediately recognisable as my work."

I take inspiration from a theory that the sphere is the fundamental shape of all things from the microscopic to the unimaginably massive. Using the Constructivist principle of employing negative space I design and make mild and stainless steel sculpture using geometry and illusion to create "solid" spheres. I'm fascinated by gyroscopic motion and intersecting planes, elements which I use to create artwork which imitate both the motion of rotating celestial bodies and the orbit of an electron. Jude is currently based in East Yorkshire and welcomes commissions for both a large and small projects.http://www.judeheaton.co.uk/

I grew up on the coast outside Gothernsburg, my use of colour and decorative technique is inspired by the Swedish coast.  After ceramic design at Central Saint Martin's in London and securing a valuable placement with Kate Malone, I moved into mould and model making for designers in the industry.  After 10 years I have rekindled my passion for clay, creating visual, expressive and pleasingly tangible oozing shapes and forms. Each piece based on nature, and moulded individually by hand, I hand mix coloured glazes which melt together during the firing process to create my signature finish.

‘Quirky Foliage is my humorous creative response to the natural world around us all – I find inspiration on walks, beachcombing, and in science journals, but particularly in my own garden. There is a sense of contrasting chaos and order which I hope is reflected across my work, in a response of joy or stillness.  The sculptures reflect my amazement at the diversity of seed pods, leaf shapes and buds at different times of year. The moving pieces are my way of enjoying the garden from the house even on a winters’ day, as they bend and sway in the slightest of breezes. More than one stem, and they appear to have a conversation with each other which makes me smile.

Miranda creates one-of-a-kind wildlife and equine sculptures in steel. The use of steel enables her to portray the movement and lightness that is the essence of wild things, but also their power and strength. She is completely self taught and has developed a style and technique that is entirely her own. There is no casting or reproduction involved.

My work is both inspired and informed by the combination of beauty and harshness of the environment in the far north as well as by the narrative work of the Inuit peoples.I work predominantly in stone and mixed media using traditional carving techniques to create forms that at first sight appear abstract but are often based on very real encounters in the Arctic.  I have a first class degree in sculpture and have had work exhibited in public areas and also at the Royal Academy. I am a qualified teacher and spent a number of years teaching pottery.

Angela’s sculpture is a direct response to the human form, aiming to catch through the inclination of the head or the tilt of the shoulders a spiritual connection in each figure. Most are sculptures of women created in her studio in the Wye Valley working with a model. She makes the sculpture in clay which is then cast in bronze resin. The sculptures are suitable for garden settings and interiors ranging from small table pieces to life size.

I am a student currently studying the BA Honours in Contemporary Art and Professional Studies at Weston College in conjunction with Bath Spa.My work in ceramics is intuitive and it evolves by chance while I am working with the clay, I can start with one thought and then that thought progresses on, so that eventually the clay resembles something completely different to the first thought that I had.  I welcome mistakes in my work because the clay can take on a different shape or meaning than my initial idea.  I glaze my ceramics intuitively and let the glaze go where it wants to by either pouring it on, splashing it on or spraying it on, this technique has come from my love of abstract art.

Marie has always been fascinated with forms and movements and this reflects so well in her sculptures. She likes to explore various facets of sculpture from the sensitivity and movement of the human form to humour in animals or the pleasing shape of fruits. Her favourite material is plaster but she also work in clay, wax and her sculptures are then cast either in bronze or bronze resin. The sculpture takes form and evolves as it is created. The final creation is a moment captured.

Lit Smith is a contemporary ceramic artist, creating sculptural clay pieces. Her workshop, in rural Worcestershire overlooks wildflower meadows and native trees in the Teme Valley. This magical location provides a constant source of inspiration for her work, along with the human form. Lit collects natural materials to make impressions with in clay. She then combines Oxides and carbonates with clear glaze to emphasise the detail.She exhibits her work in galleries, exhibitions and sculpture trails throughout the country. Lit makes a donation from sales to Ataxia UK to support research into the rare disease which she and some members of her family have inherited.

My sculpture is fundamentally a celebration of life. I am inspired by nature, belief and belonging and a sense of the ethereal in our natural world.  I work with polystyrene because of its perceived ethereal qualities, its sense of weightlessness and light. I challenge myself to retain this sense of lightness and radiance when the sculpture is cast in iron, which is traditionally a very solid, heavy-looking material. When modelling with nuggets of clay I aim to capture light and shadow and the visual history of a sculpture’s creation, always aiming for rhythm, harmony and a timeless quality in the final bronze piece.Whether my primary material is polystyrene or clay my focus and methodology is always the same: to strip away all unnecessary diversions and refine the form to fully reveal its essence or ‘soul’. http://www.carosweet.com/

Sally Anne Tottle's work is inspired by her love of animals, in particular her fascination for horses. As a teenager she was awestruck by the horses for the Parthenon frieze and ancient horses have remained a great source of inspiration until this day.  In the 1980s Sally trained in ceramics and exhibited throughout the South West she has taught in Monmouth for the last twenty five years, before setting up her own studio at home working in clay, bronze and jesmonite. More recently she has been experimenting with wire and how light can be reflected through it to create fluidity and movement.
