Cornish Artists

Chloe’s style is vibrant, energetic and multi-textured. “My aim is to capture the moment, freezing time for a split-second. This can mean stopping a wave at the time of it's break, or halting an ocean full of surfers poised, waiting for that next big swell to come through.”

Lucy first learnt how to throw in Japan in 1996, when she was awarded the 'Ferdinand Zweig Memorial Scholarship', to travel and study Japanese pottery as part of her Ceramic BA Hons Degree at Falmouth College of Art. She has been very influenced by Japanese ceramics ever since and continues this love of the East meets West as a volunteer at the Leach Pottery in St Ives.

Sara Owen's paintings are carriers of sensation and containers of feelings and emotions in response to landscapes experienced, relationships with people, events and things seen.

His paintings play with colour and movement and there’s no restrictions on paint when it comes to achieving a desired effect. With the palette knife, Joe’s work often takes on abstract tones, but the textures he creates with the oil paint gives each piece an effervescence and grace whilst allowing bold colours to sing.

Living in Cornwall is inspiring for artist Lucy Barnfather. Influenced by the wild sea bound nature of this place, her paintings seek to express of her relationship with the world she lives in. She is looking to represent a moment of awareness and feeling rather than a physical space.

I hope a combination of careful planning and the spectacular nature of the ocean can be seen in my work.
