Deborah Butler



Deborah Butler is a Liverpool based painter working in oil on canvas. Her work begins while out walking, with rough sketches, notes and colour studies to capture the landscape in its vastness and its detail. Back in the studio she plays with the scale and structure, the colours and textures observed.
Mike Ibbotson



Mike Ibbotson’s artistic practice is expansive in a wide range of different media, including painting, drawing, photography and printing. His artwork flows out of a personal philosophy and approach working from observation, making sketches that describe space and volume, not just objects in a view. Paintings are made from a memory of place along with the observational sketches and an intimacy that comes from the plein air pencil drawings.
Nina Archer



Nina Archer is an abstract painter, living and working in the south Shropshire hills. Following a career in graphic design and project management she moved to Shropshire from Sussex and began painting full time from her studio which overlooks the borderlands of the Welsh Marches.
