I’m a fibre addict who spins, dyes, knits and crochets. I enjoy creating and working with yarn and use my work to express my love of colour and texture. I use a traditional Ashford spinning wheel to spin wool, alpaca, mixed fibres and even dog hair! I’ve been knitting and crocheting forever and always have several projects on the go. I sell my yarn and a range of items including gloves, shawls, purses, bowls, keyrings, cards and chickens.

Hazelwood Hall Pavilion

Inspired by the landscape and orchards around Halecat, I try and capture the impermanence of blossom and the ever shifting sands of the Bay. I work with a palette of local earth colours, including slate dust, Morecambe Bay sand, and the clay from near my studio at Halecat, to glaze and decorate my hand thrown pottery.

I am a local wildlife artist specialising in animals and landscapes using pastel pencils. I have framed original pictures, prints and cards. I have hand painted cards, jewellery, and pebble art. I create ceramics, mainly pots using nature as inspiration.
Huge apologies from the SAAAF Team (well, mostly from Tony, the web person) for sending you lots of emails this morning – one for every artist’s details uploaded! Sorry!
I’ve switched this feature off for the rest of the uploads, so you should only receive a few updates in the future!
Thanks for your patience. Our website should be ready to view shortly. I’ll let you know when.

A retired teacher of Art, Kath now spends her time making Art in a variety of techniques and media. This can be printing, painting and in particular drawing, depending on the subject matter and context. The theme for most pieces tends to be landscape and, lately, she has been exploring a broader range of titles which include still life and portraiture. Inspiration comes from a range of sources including weather conditions, seasonal colours, events and atmosphere, as well as the people she encounters. What interests her as much as the images she creates is the process used to create it.
Venue:
Arnside WI Village Hall
My main inspiration comes from living with and watching animal behaviour and trying to capture it with clay. Most of my sculptures are built up individually using thin layers of a mixture of clays and bisque fired to 1000C . They then have various oxides applied and are re fired to 1250C
