Amy Salisbury

Amy Salisbury is never happier than when she has got paint between her toes…..literally! ‘I guess you could say I’m a converted art conservator and designer who prefers to get her hands dirty.’

She has produced commissioned art which is dotted around hotels, offices and private homes from London to Warsaw. Amy studied at UCL and The Courtauld Institute of Art, and has worked in the arts for over 25 years.

Amy Salisbury’s latest collection is inspired by the BBC series ‘Blue Planet’ and the underwater world and aerial shots of our beautiful world. The free flowing nature of the paints and technique used reflects the natural patterns – uncontrollable and moving to its’ own rhythm.

Different forms of nature can be seen within these paintings – and I hope each viewer will see something new for themselves.

Living Wall Murals

Living Wall Murals is the duo Mary West and Clara Wilkinson. Mary studied Fine Art at the Slade and Clara studied at St. Martins and Camberwell before training for a career in interior design.

Our murals came about through a love of painting and a shared aesthetic in design and interiors. We began by experimenting in colour and scale on the walls of our own homes and then, through word of mouth our business grew. We now specialise in botanical and abstract murals for domestic or commercial interiors. Our projects range in scale from bold and bonkers, to delicate fine foliage.

Living Wall Murals have created many murals in London and Brighton over the past two years. Our latest commissions include a 13 metre mural in a private house in Highgate. A 5 metre mural at Huddle London and a new commission for a 25 metres mural for a London hospital. Our paintings and prints are also available.

We like creating art that doesn’t add more stuff to the world. We bring beauty and a little bit of ‘up-cycling’ to your wall.

Tom Waugh

Tom Waugh MRSS is a British sculptor based in Somerset. He has been an associate member of the Royal Society of Sculptors since 2018. In 2005 he gained a First in Architectural Stone Carving at the City and Guilds of London Art School and has spent time in India studying traditional carving techniques with the temple carver Raja Saceran.

‘I find it fascinating that sculpture has the ability to cause a shift in people’s perception. In my work I hope to challenge ideas of material value and make people look again at the things we take for granted.’

Tom Waugh carves stone and marble in minute detail to mirror the discarded waste of human consumption. These objects document the tiny imprints of human use. Plastic bags, cardboard boxes and tin cans are squashed, crushed and wrinkled whilst still displaying the traces of mass production.

His carving can be seen on St Pancras Station, St Martin in the fields and St Georges Chapel, Windsor. His Sculptures are exhibited widely and can be seen in the collections of Warwick University and Gladstone’s Library.

Sue King

Sue King is inspired by colour & light. She designs and creates vibrant kiln-formed glass for residential and commercial interior projects, including specialising in healthcare commissions. Her work also includes smaller items such as hanging panels and tableware using a contemporary style and colour palettes.

Originally qualifying with BA Interior Design. Sue worked for various hotel design practices, before running her own design consultancy for many years. She studied Glass with Architecture/Fine Art at Central St Martins College of Art & Design in 2002.

All of Sue’s work is imbued with a passion for colour, taking inspiration from artists, nature and pattern and her own photography/artwork. She has developed a fluid technique of working in a painterly style whereby coloured glass is cut freehand, overlaid onto clear glass and then fired at temperatures of around 810 degrees to fuse together. Her designs are all unique and one off pieces.

Sue King’s commissions are developed closely with clients using hand drawn watercolour sketches that are then translated into glass. This helps her clients to see a visual representation of their vision and ideas so they are fully involved throughout the commission process.

Sue enjoys exploring how glass interacts with light and often incorporates textural markings to bring out these qualities. Glass shows its best qualities when displayed in natural light, which then throws beautiful colour shadow washes into the surrounding space.

Larger commissions include panels for healthcare projects, as well as contemporary stylish sculptures for a Saudi Arabian hotel, panels for Molton Brown in New York and many glass installations for private homes.

More unusually he has worked with Rope, Brick and even Coal Dust depending on the requirement of the brief.

While developing his practice Colin taught fine art and was head of Sculpture at Sunderland University from 2000 till 2006.

Stuart Redler

Stuart Redler was brought up on a farm in Somerset, England. He moved to London aged 18 to study economics, then photography. After college he spent 15 years photographing advertising campaigns for companies such as Volvo, IBM and Deutsche Bank. Since then he has concentrated on fine art photography.

Stuart’s interest in far flung (and near) places and cultures has resulted in his unusual photographs of architecture, people and nature. The unexpected and sometimes humorous subject matter, combined with the intense contrasts of black and white and use of strong light, give his pictures their stark and unique style.

As well as appearing in numerous private collections his work is included in the permanent collection at The National Portrait Gallery in London and has also been exhibited at the Victoria and Albert Museum.

His work has appeared in publications including The Times, The Daily Telegraph, The Independent on Sunday, Conde Nast Traveller and House & Garden.

Stuart Redler has received a number of awards, including six from The Association of Photographers who awarded him Gold for his portfolio of architectural images. He has also received awards from Graphis, PDN and Communication Arts.

To coincide with his exhibition Timbuktu to W2, and in conjunction with the Cultural Mission of Timbuktu, Stuart set up a competition to find a British town to twin with Timbuktu in Mali. Hay-on-Wye eventually won, having beaten off competition from over 40 towns and cities.

Lizzie Farey

Lizzie Farey’s intricate structures capture a still moment, a distillation and order. Calm after a storm.

Intimate forms provide a hint of the process of creation. We can see and even feel points of tension in the work. Our eye can follow the artist’s hand, the choices made in twisting and turning this flexible medium.

Born in Singapore, for the last 30 years Farey has been based in rural Galloway, in Scotland’s South West. The rural setting of home and studio are her guiding inspiration, her sensitivity with wood revealing an interaction with nature that is deeply personal.

Lizzie Farey grows much of her own pallet of artist’s materials. Planting, tending and harvesting a range of willow which is grown for both texture and colour.

Willow, it’s flow of flex and tension is often manipulated into rhythmic patterns, Artist, willow, form, each unique, reach a perfection as the work comes together, inner creative process and final form working as one.

‘My work engages with nature. I focus on recreating the essence of natural form through the medium of willow, larch, ash, hazel and other locally grown woods. Influences from Japan continue to inspire my attempts to capture the simplicity, practicality and beauty of the materials.’
