Gabrielle Eber’s practice revolves around her everyday routines, places and spaces that she has observed over time or have become embedded into her work in other ways. She is interested in the immersive act and qualities of painting and seeks to convey as much as possible in the most sparing way. She is after a lyricism which balances the real with the poetic.

Ursula Kellett
The random reactions of one pigment with another create effects of movement and flux that bring the entire surface alive. The canvas acts like a magnifying glass. Created with natural pigments, earths and sands, found by myself. As a contrast I use nail varnishes and lacquers.
We are Mandy Leonard and Lou Mumford, two independent abstract painters sharing a studio in North London. Working alongside one another, our practices remain distinct, each exploring abstraction through our own visual language, materials and processes. Our work is rooted in experimentation, with a shared interest in colour, texture, gesture and the emotional resonance of paint.
Although we work independently, our shared studio creates an ongoing dialogue between our practices, offering visitors the opportunity to experience two unique approaches to contemporary abstract painting.

Kim Scouller
I paint from observation, finding inspiration in everyday surroundings. Through bold colour and lively brushwork, I explore portraiture, still life and landscapes, seeking the character and quiet presence within familiar subjects. Working on an intimate scale, I hope each painting invites a slower, closer way of looking.

Liz Sutherland,
This year my work reflects the use of vivacious colours and bold brushstrokes to depict scenes from the Outer Hebrides, as well as intimate figurative movement. All convey an expressive joy and spontaneity, painting directly from life and working quickly using fast brush strokes. This oil of my son playing a trumpet captures a dynamic moment outdoors; others depict the stunning mountains and seascapes of the Isle of Harris with stone cottages and reflective bright hues.
