Welcome to our easter show THE TROPICAL DELIGHTS FROM THE SUMMER OF 2018 HAVE ARRIVED
IN THIS, OUR EASTER SHOW.
rob braybrooks FOUND HIS
INSPIRATION IN THE MIRROR SEAS WHICH HAD BECOME THE NORM,
geoffrey bickley DELIGHTED IN THE JOY OF LEAPING MACKEREL, AND lizzie black TOOK HER LEAD FROM THE LUSH ABBEY GARDEN.
john bampfield CONTINUED HIS EXPLORATION OF WHERE LAND MEETS THE SEA, INTERJECTING NOTES OF VIBRANCY WITHIN BOTH.
teresa pemberton, ALWAYS A COLOURIST, EXPANDED HER
REPERTOIRE TO INCLUDE STILL LIFE AGAINST THE LANDSCAPE, ALLOWING HER TO RUN AMOK WITH HER PIGMENTS TO GREAT EFFECT.
SURPASSING HIMSELF THIS YEAR IS tom holland WITH A VERITABLE
RAINBOW OF FLORA DANCING BELOW SORBET SKIES. THE SEASON HAS BARELY BEGUN AND WE ARE AWASH WITH CREATIVITY. ENJOY!

A FAIRLY MILD WINTER IN TERMS OF WEATHER THIS LAST YEAR,
ALTHOUGH JUST LATELY THE STRONG CONTINUOUS WINDS
HAVE PROVED HAZARDOUS TO SOME BIRDS BEING BLOWN OFF COURSE.
NICE TO HEAR THE CETTI’S WARBLER HAD BEEN SPOTTED ON THE ISLANDS. AND ALREADY A SWALLOW HAS BEEN SEEN.
THE BUZZARDS SEEM TO BE MORE COMMON NOW, ESPECIALLY
WHERE I LIVE. WE HAVE ONE THAT COMES EVERY MORNING HOPING TO FIND A RABBIT OR TWO IN THE FIELD.
THIS YEAR I HAVE INCLUDED IN MY CARVINGS A COUPLE OF NEW BIRDS
- THE BLACK SWANS AND SOME OLD FAVOURITES.

IT IS A HAPPY DAY WHEN I ARRIVE ON
TRESCO TO PAINT. THIS YEAR I WAS SPOILT BY A HALCYON DAY AND LEFT IN A SLIGHTLY
TERRIFYING STORM.
BEING A PLEIN AIR PAINTER I OFTEN HAVE A
STRATEGY DEPENDING ON WEATHER AND TIME
OF DAY. IT IS LIKE A GAME: SHELTERING BEHIND ROCKS ON THE BEACH, RACING BACK BEFORE
THE RAIN REALLY SETS IN AND RUSHING OUT AS
THE SUN APPEARS FOR ITS LAST FAREWELL AT SUNSET.

teresa pemberton COMBINING STILL LIFE OBJECTS WITH A HINTERLAND OF SEA OR LANDSCAPE HAS ALWAYS BEEN A FAVOURITE
SUBJECT AND THIS YEAR I HAVE EXPERIMENTED WITH
NATURE'S
OBJECTS
OF
FLOWERS,
FRUIT
AND
VEGETABLES AGAINST THOSE SPECIAL BLUES OF SCILLY.
I LOVE THE EARLY FLOWERS AND HENCE NARCISSUS HOLD A SPECIAL CONTRAST AGAINST COOL BLUES.
THEN THERE ARE THE WARMER COLOURS OF SUNNY
DAYS WHEN THE ROCKS HOLD A VARIETY OF RED AND
PINK AND ORANGE HUES, WHICH SEEM TO SEEP INTO THE SANDY SHORES. THE MULTI-COLOURED ROCKS ARE
EXAGGERATED BY THE SOFT SHOWERS OF RAIN OR THE LAPPING TIDES.

A CENTURY AGO, GEOFFREY GARNIER STOOD OUT AMONG
WEST CORNWALL’S FAMOUS NEWLYN SCHOOL AS THE ONLY ARTIST TO DEDICATE HIMSELF ENTIRELY TO THE ART OF
PRINT-MAKING. I’VE ALWAYS LOVED HIS WOOD-CUTS AND
AQUATINT ETCHINGS, AND THE WAY THOSE MECHANICAL
TECHNIQUES RESULTED IN SUCH BEAUTIFUL PIECES OF ART.
HERE ON THE SCILLIES, A FEW YEARS ON, AND 40 MILES
FURTHER WEST, I’VE BEEN INSPIRED TO LOOK FOR THOSE
FAMILIAR SILHOUETTES THAT STAND OUT IN THE TRESCO
LANDSCAPE. TREES, BIRDS, BOATS, BUILDINGS, WATER AND LANDFORMS. I HOPE YOU ENJOY THEM.
