Current Window
This month sees the artist Oliver Pyle take centre stage in our main window with a stunning collection of limited edition prints and originals of Purbeck and the wider coastline and countryside of Dorset.
Olly's love of Purbeck shines through his work and he often provides detailed descriptions of how what inspired him on that day to paint that picture view - this all adds to the magic of the piece.
Olly paints in water-colours and says "The British landscape is unique - there is so much diversity that can be found on such a relatively small island; be it the wind-swept spaces of the Ashdown Forest in Sussex, or the dramatic, jagged coastline in the West Country. I understand the frustrations that the British weather confers but as an artist it creates endless opportunities, with the changing light always adding a fresh perspective to each scene."
Alongside Olly we have the lovely oyster catcher ceramics from potter Rosemary Jacks who lives just over the Dorset border in east Devon. Her work is functional and solid and will make a great addition to your mugs, bowls and jugs collection.
Those fabulous new baskets and bags are the go to and on trend item and can be purchased in the gallery and also on line and let's face it who doesn't LOVE a good pom pom bag!
