Christine Bass paints acrylic and mixed media landscapes inspired by the Ridgeway, the Chilterns and the Berkshire Downs.

Deborah Brett uses stained glass, vitreous glass and found materials in her richly coloured mosaics.

Susan Day creates delicate, porcelain lamps textured with the imprints of leaves and flowers, and vessels inspired by Buckinghamshire landscapes.

Chris Inder is a ceramic designer-maker producing porcelain tableware which is both beautiful and functional.

Graham Lester cuts, bends, folds and curls paper to create complex paper sculptures with a 3D effect. Graham also turns bowls comprised of layers of bonded paper, plywood and acrylic.

Denise Purdy is a printmaker using traditional printmaking techniques to create modern, abstract, hand-pulled prints in small limited editions.

Helen White's exquisite gold-leaf illuminations and ceramics are inspired by medieval design.

Kate Wilkinson's distinctive, contemporary jewellery combines textured silver with cork, cord and semi-precious beads.

Rachel Wright is a textile artist inspired by the natural landscapes of the British Isles, using layers of fabric and thread to evoke the shifting light, swirling clouds and restless tides.
