Barbara Pearman: Work can be seen at: www.barbarapearman.co.uk
The energy created by the elements is the basis for all movement within the landscape and is key to Barbara's latest images. She aims to create artwork that lifts the spirits, is energetic, harmonic and engages the viewer with it's sense of space. She uses texturising fabrics, for example muslin and hessian on her canvases, giving them a new dimension and the possibility of applying the paint, be it oil or acrylics, in an expressive and liberating way.
Meliisa Setterington: Work can be seen at www.setart.co.uk
Melissa works with Acrylic paints on board, paper and Relief Works on wood. She explores polarities: the dynamics of shapes and forms expressed in a controlled/expressive, cold/hot, hard-edged/blurred-edged way. Representing them within a strong but simple composition; shapes that fight against each other in a space.

WHITE The Gallery: www.whitethegallery.com
Website going live beginning of March 2007
'WHITE The Gallery', passionately offer fine Art from a selection of some of the most
talented, contemporary artists in the UK.
'WHITE the gallery' has put together a unique portfolio of Artists who are all visually exploring their journey through life. Our aim is to exhibit a rare collection of Art that has emerged from the imagination of Artists who look at the world from the inside, filter their experience and produce work of great feeling and emotion.
Work from this collection of ART can be acquired either as an original or as limited edition signed giclee prints, which are exclusive to 'WHITE the gallery'. With our low volume limited edition runs, we aim for all prints to become more collectable as the number of available prints deplete and more importantly, as the Artists gain more eminence in the marketplace.
All our limited edition prints are personally approved and signed by the Artist, numbered by hand and supplied with a document of authenticity.
Our giclee prints are mounted to standard frame sizes making it easier and more economical for you to choose a frame to suit any environment.
Buying Art on the Internet is becoming extremely popular as is sending gifts using vouchers. As personal taste dictates our selection of a work of art, we offer gift vouchers so that you can provide your friends and family, the opportunity of choosing and owning a work of art to their taste, as a very special gift. Visit our interactive guest book, your thoughts are important to us.

The Purple Poppy Gallery: www.purple-poppy-gallery.co.uk
The Purple Poppy Team are a small group of local artists who believe that there is a need in the area for the friendly encouragement of artists to exhibit together in style, whilst raising the profile of the talent we have locally. This is made possible by sharing the costs through a low exhibition fee and a low commission on sales. The task of putting together such an exhibition is huge but well organised and managed by the team.
The ‘Purple Poppy Gallery’ is the event, a weekend gallery style exhibition providing a platform for carefully selected artists to participate in regular gallery style exhibitions. We aim to provide a high quality exhibition space and a peaceful environment for art lovers to enjoy your work. We work hard to promote the gallery, and the reputation of the artists. We do this through targeted advertising, editorials, leafleting, posters, road boards, our extensive mailing list, web site and web links, and by using our established network of contacts. We know through our constant monitoring of visitors that we are hitting the spot, our customers love the friendly atmosphere, the quality and variety of work and above all the fact that it is artist led and not a commercial gallery. The opportunity to talk to artists about the work is a real bonus for them.
