Kramek
Pat
studied printed textiles at Duncan of Jordanstone School of
Art. After a successful career in design and education she decided
to take up her passion as a full time artist in 2000.
Last year she was very pleased to be the invited artist to represent Scottish Art for the 39th Annual Interceltic Festival in Lorrent, Brittany.
Pat's work is held in many private and corporate collections throughout the world.
Angela Lawrence
After
graduating from University of Keele with a B.A. Honours Degree
in Music and English, Angela studied art at the Camberwell School
of Art, London, and at the Joensuu College in Finland.
Her recent landscape paintings range from a semi-abstract to a more representational style, and evoke the changing moods of the hills and sea in South West Scotland and the Western Highlands with an emphasis on the effects of the light on the land.
Kate Lloyd
Kate began working with glass in 1995 making various 3D pieces and boxes filled with natural forms. She developed this into sandblasting designs taken mainly from her linocut prints onto stained glass, and has started to use more copper and other metals continuing to produce 2D and 3D pieces.
Throughout her career she has expressed her love of nature in the form of drawing, painting, scraperboards and linocuts. In the last few years she has painted landscapes and seascapes whilst developing her new "Solder Creatures", quirky works depicting animals and birds, full of character and humour.
Other Works
We

jewellery and textiles, so it's always worth popping in between
exhibition openings to see what's new.
