Mandy James Mandy finds collage offers such freedom of expression…as in the choice of materials. Having always loved vintage and aged paper and combining these with paint, stamps and textural pastes, magazine cut-outs and stencils. She finds the choices are limitless, making each piece a wonderful challenge and an exciting adventure. |

Leanne Hicks I have named my exhibition “Butterfly Dreaming reclaiming colour” I run a women’s art group called Butterfly Dreaming to teach women that they have worth and value and a God who loves them. I love the Butterfly because it reminds me that you can come from a very dark place and turn into something beautiful. A shift of light can turn the ordinary into the extraordinary, just like on life when we change our thought patterns and old beliefs, and perspectives. I hope you enjoy my journey. |

Robert Macfarlane Blue (Mac) Mac always enjoyed art immensely. The paintings in this exhibit were done in the mid-1970s to 1980s. He was fascinated with abstract landscapes and was able to use rich colours and shapes to create great depth. Mac passed away on 31st August 2020, and his family feel privileged to be able to exhibit this collection posthumously in his honour |

Cassie Eyears Although only an emerging artist, she has gained immense pleasure experimenting with texture and colour and juxtaposition of shape. She is very excited to continue exploring this wonderful world of freedom and expression. A chance outing with her sister at an art class fuelled a passion she never knew existed. |
