Hester Berry paints expressive and organic rural and urban

landscapes that are made of recycled, eco-friendly materials.

Hester paints from life, invariably when it is raining, observing the

idiosyncrasies of natural life from a sheltered perch. ‘My painting is an attempt

to connect the visual and culturally familiar experience of the landscape

with its visceral. The viewer can identify with the pleasures of the existing but

endangered great outdoors’. Hester is the winner of the 2011 Peoples Choice

award for Young Artists.

Katrin Moye28 June – 10 August

Katrin Moye’s functional ceramics are

inspired by childhood memories

and a desire to create pieces that

might have an important place in

a family home.

Her work is identified by a cleverly

chosen colour palette and playful

patterns developed from 1950s

motifs. Katrin’s handmade tableware

compliments the delicate perfection

of her still life watercolours, displayed

together in the exhibition.

Shakspeare Glass3 May – 22 June

Shakspeare Glass

Katrin Moye

Will Shakspeare set up Shakspeare Glass in 1988 after studying in

Farnham.

He is inspired by nature and produces distinctive work that ranges from small

vases to large cast wall pieces, enjoying the spontaneity of the glass blowing

process. This exhibition showcases exciting new abstract wall-based work and

a range of striking sculptural forms.

Illustration is vital in visual

communication with endless

creative possibilities.

As Anthony Laureate has said,

‘illustration has a rightful place

along all other arts that inspire, tell

stories, express emotions and give

pleasure’. This exhibition presents

collectable illustration and works

on paper from animation and

artists’ books to cartoons, drawings

and designs.

Summer in Balcony Gallery

Barbara Beaumont is inspired by ordinary,

everyday occurrences such as a news

item or a glimpse of something from a

train or a car.

She finds that the memory will go through many

alterations and adjustments before it feels right

and expresses the feeling of the initial idea.

Barbara has exhibited widely, including the

Royal Academy and the Mall Galleries, London.
