BRONNIE CUNNINGHAM (1932-2018) - PIECED SILK TEXTILES
Bronnie and her husband Sandy, a painter and printmaker, moved to Treve Cottage in 1961 from London. During this period Bronnie was writing and compiling books including The Piccolo Book of Riddles, Funny Business, Cunningham’s Little Red Record Book and The Puffin Joke Book.
In 1995 she founded The Tree Show with her son Euan and his partner Sally Cutler.
At that time she was already a member of the Sussex Guild of Craftsmen designing, making and selling her pieced silk creations.
The work on show reflects her love for colour and geometric shapes. Her work table would always be full of circles. quadrants and triangles all cut out in luxurious colours and materials. The next stage, she particularly enjoyed, placing these shapes together and the endless possibilities that this created.
Since 1995 the show has grown organically through friends and local artists and since Bronnie's death in 2018 we are hoping to continue that spirit that was created all those years ago.

EUAN CUNNINGHAM - INK DRAWINGS, SCULPTURE and PAINTING
These works for sale are brand new and have been completed during the lockdown. I have enjoyed experimenting with paint, layering colours and then scraping and carving through the surface revealing what is underneath. I like
the idea of revealing colours through the layers which become blended as I
carve into them. I also like the idea of revealing colours that in some way relate to the subject and its history.
My other work includes drawing and sculpture. Last year I won a bursary to complete two new sculptural works for Fresh Air Art.
I have also recently completed a collaged image as a commission for the Tate, to produce an image of Tate Modern as a poster for their website.
I enjoy working in different mediums and find each practice can spark ideas off
in unexpected ways.

KAREN GRIMSTEAD - GLASS
As a Contemporary Artist, I primarily paint bold Abstract Expressionist Art and am a recipient of a number of International Art Awards. I also enjoy working with fused Glass which I also create in my studio, for harmonising with my paintings for client Commissions and Exhibitions.
My art style in both mediums is bold, colourful, textural and dynamic. My Abstract painting process is often lengthy, involving many layers of paint application for the composition’s development. As it evolves with every response I make, it takes me on an emotional journey, indelibly connecting me to the artwork. Creating original, authentic art, respects my personal integrity as an Artist and my work frequently includes symbolic references and coded numerics, adding compositional intrigue and meaning to my paintings.
Whether I am painting on canvas, or creating dramatic Sculptural Glass, I seek boldness, dynamic movement and unpredictability in all my compositions. It is knowing that at the right time, at the right place, my art will also forge a connection with those who seek it for their own.
I look forward to you joining me on my ongoing art journey of exploration.

LINDA MILLS - WILLOW
Linda has lived in Hampshire since 1973 and been working with willow since 2004. Having initially attended a taster day at West Dean College near Chichester to make some willow platters and thoroughly enjoying it, she decided she wanted to learn more and booked the next course immediately. After attending various day and week long courses with a selection of tutors making frame baskets, bird and animal sculptures and Christmas trees, I moved on to learning to make traditional baskets as most people recognise them. I started selling in 2009 and have been a full time basket maker and willow sculptor since 2013 creating both functional and artistic designs.
All the baskets are made using traditional methods but the more contemporary designs include other items such as shotgun cartridges or shells. The willow used is grown in Somerset, Hampshire and Dorset. I have had work in galleries in the past including The Riverside Gallery, Barnes and The creative Gallery, Wareham but now teach at the Weald & Downland Living Museum and sell at various venues around the South of England see my web site for further details.
Animals and birds are made with reference to photographs and personal observation, if kept indoors they will last indefinitely. Outside the weather will cause deterioration first by bleaching in sunlight then the action of rain and frost will start to break them down after 4 to 5 years, this may be slightly prolonged by allowing them to dry out in the autumn and storing them in a frost proof place for the winter.

MICK WATERHOUSE - WOOD CARVER and SCULPTOR
A close connection with trees and the land in my youth and an enduring love of the Green Man and medieval imagery has inspired my work during 30 years as woodcarver and sculptor.
During this time I have exhibited my work annually at Open Studio events in Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire and at numerous exhibitions, including the Barbican Centre, Bucks County Museum, and Cecil Higgins Museum.
I have also taught Wood Carving and helped run the Bicester Sculpture Group during my career.
I have been commissioned to produce landscapes, bespoke memorials, lettering and one off engineering patterns.
My favourite works are those that come from myself and my interests and are produced from English timbers, in the tooled finish that has become my style.

ROS HITCHENS - WEAVING
I like the feel of all the materials – especially the wool , which I also spin – the setting up and preparation of the loom process --- long and exacting.
The weaving process seems to be a bit intuitive as I go along – having had a basic idea. I like to let the colours and shapes dictate the rug I am working on, as you never see the whole until the finish – so a lot of intuition and feel. Maybe a bit loose in conception – that is my way! – but there is usually a subject matter, perhaps something inspired by written words portraying a feeling.
Hence the titles.
I have always woven in some form and spun wool.
I spent 1 year on a Tapestry Diploma Course at West Dean college – 20yrs ago , and afterwards exhibiting in Budapest and in England–but have returned to weaving on a 1930’s loom – made by George Maxwell – using the tapestry way of inserting the wool mostly by hand rather than by a shuttle.

ROSAMUND FOWLER - WOOD ENGRAVER
I trained at Edinburgh College of Art and graduated with a degree in Illustration and Graphic Design. Following graduation I worked for over 25 years as a freelance illustrator, working mainly in watercolours. After a short spell of exploring large scale oil painting, I concentrated on wood engraving and printmaking and this is now my main discipline.
Wood engraving is a long-established relief print method. After drawing my design on a specially prepared wood block, I carefully engrave it using traditional tools. The block is then inked and printed by hand using either my vintage Farley press, or my antique (19th century) Albion press. All the prints I sell, including my cards, are hand printed from the original block and therefore each image is unique.
I have been selected for and exhibited wood engraving prints 3 times in the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition. I am an elected member of The Society of Wood Engravers and exhibit with them. I am also a member of The Sussex Guild and have work for sale in their Lewes shop. Further work can be found on my website rosamundfowler.co.uk.

WENDY FARLEY - CERAMICS
I am a ceramic artist working from my studio in West Sussex. I trained, many years ago, at West Surrey College of Art and Design, Farnham and Goldsmiths, London.
My work is handbuilt, using both coiling and slab building techniques. My inspiration comes from everything I see but particularly from the coast, nature and ethnographical art and craft. I have always been interested in simplicity and purity of form using smoke firing as a technique to enhance shape. More recently I have been using a more painterly approach using oxides, underglazes and slips.
I am a selected member of The Sussex Guild of Craftsmen.
I sell my work through galleries, shows and exhibitions.

MIKE TOPHAM - MIXED MEDIA ARTIST
I completed a design course at Trent polytechnic and after a short period working as an exhibition designer here in UK,spent many years in the Middle East designing interiors, landscapes, furniture etc, together with architectural model making .
Since returning to England in 1996 my artwork has been mostly constructed in wire and mixed media, and I have been fortunate to belong to a number of professional bodies, including the Surrey and Sussex guilds and the Hampshire Artists Cooperative etc. My work has been exhibited and sold in galleries around the country and abroad.
A recent move to the seaside (and more space) has prompted me to develop and produce new ideas (mainly in Papier mache), which I shall be exhibiting together with my wire and mixed media creations.

RAGA BROWN - WEAVING
I started weaving in Australia about 15 years ago and still love my weaving.
People have asked me 'How do I have the patience to do this?' as I am not the most patient person, and I just find it very easy.
I have woven wall hangings, scarfs and material lengths that I have made into clothes that I wear and that have won me awards in both NSW Australia and here in Dorset in England.
Over the notorious lockdown I started a new side to my passions, I learned about Eco Printing and am specialising in 'Up-cycling' 'Eco Printed Up-cycled Clothing' and have some items for sale here as well as woven items.
And even so, weaving is still my main passion."""
