8 Artists at 44 Howard Road

Art disciplines: Ceramics, Drawing and painting, Glass, Jewellery, Mixed media, Printmaking, Sculpture

Diana Pattenden’s sculpture will be on display alongside two incredibly talented artists: the exquisite glassware and jewellery of Shirley Eccles, and the vibrant paintings, prints, and mixed media art of Sarah Moorcroft.

Diana’s bronze animals capture power and emotion with their anatomical accuracy and character on display. Come and see the new bronzes created this year—each piece aims to bring a deep connection between the viewer and the inherent wild spirit.

Shirley is an expert and can explain the amazing technicalities of using glass and silver to create beautiful artwork. Her pieces combine technical mastery with inspired design, resulting in original jewellery and signature glassware that shimmers with colour and light.

Sarah is a colour and mark-making magician. The joy of colour and ingenuity is woven into her work in ways that amaze the eye and delight the spirit within us all. Expect bold, expressive pieces that celebrate light, shape, lines and texture.

We invite you to slow down and sit a while. Tea and cake will always be available, offering a perfect chance to relax in the garden, chat with the artists, and fully absorb the artistry around you. We look forward to welcoming you to this unique exhibition.
