Featured Artists
Vanessa Bell
Vanessa Bell was an English painter, member of the Bloomsbury Group and the sister of Virginia Woolf. In 1904, Vanessa and her siblings moved to Bloomsbury, where they met and began socialising with the artists, writers and intellectuals who would become known as the Bloomsbury Group. In 1907, she married fellow Bloomsbury member Clive Bell. Vanessa, Clive, the painter Duncan Grant and the writer David Garnett moved to the Sussex countryside shortly before the outbreak of the First World War, and settled at Charleston Farmhouse near Firle. In 1912, alongside Picasso and Matisse, Bell exhibited her work in the Second Post-Impressionist Exhibition at the Grafton Galleries, London.
Ditz
Austrian artist Ditz paints house pets and farm animals, often in domestic settings or grouped together. Her distinctive style has evolved over time to include highly detailed, quirky, small-scale images.
Linda Richardson
Linda Richardson is an Essex born artist-printmaker who has now made her home on the beautiful Shetland Islands. After a 2 year foundation course, Linda studied printmaking at the Colchester School of Art, 1976-1979. She still has close ties with East Anglia but now finds inspiration from the wildlife and varied landscape that Shetland provides. Her printmaking encompasses both linocuts and etching. As a painter she works in acrylic, watercolour or mixed media.
Laura Knight
Dame Laura knight was an English landscape and figurative painter. Laura studied at Nottingham School of Art in 1900, where she met Harold Knight. After marrying in 1903, they joined an artists' colony at Staithes, Yorkshire, before moving in 1908 to Newlyn, Cornwall. In 1936 she became only the second woman elected to full membership of the Royal Academy. Her large retrospective exhibition at the Royal Academy in 1965 was the first for a woman. In her long career, Knight was among the most successful and popular painters in Britain. Her success in the male-dominated British art establishment paved the way for greater status and recognition for women artists. She was also greatly interested in, and inspired by, marginalised communities and individuals, including Romani people and circus performers.
