Clio Graham - Slipware
Pottery Tel: 01458 210977 |
|
I design and
make my own hand-thrown range of domestic earthenware at my vineyard workshop.
I enjoy the warm, earthy qualities of slipware; using white slip as a basis for
decoration over red earthenware, and to then apply coloured slips encourages a
direct approach, and there is a wide range of techniques to achieve rich and
colourful qualities.
Words and
verse have long been used on slipware, on harvest jugs, cider mugs, and often
on commemorative wares to record marriages, births and anniversaries. I wanted
to continue this tradition, but with a contemporary feel. I can undertake
commissions for special occasions, or create a personal piece of pottery;
perhaps with a jug or bowl with a favourite poem.

The Jewellers Anne, Helen, and Sally Tel: 01458 851084 |

We are three
established jewellers working creatively in a diversity of styles, producing
individually designed and handcrafted jewellery ranging from earrings to
tiaras. We work mainly in sterling silver combined with precious and
semi-precious stones and beads in both contemporary and classic styles. Each
piece of jewellery is made in the Moorlynch workshop where visitors have the
opportunity to view and purchase these high-quality designs.

Sue Hemmings - Equine Art Tel: 01278 722969 |

An equine
portrait is a great gift or memento for those horse-lovers amongst you, but I
also produce general ILLUSTRATIONS for individuals and businesses. Try me for
your personalised letter heads, advertisements or brochures.

Joan Roberts - Wedding and
Portrait Photographer Tel: 01278 722162 |
|
I originally
trained as a Royal Navy photographer, but recently I have concentrated on
portraiture and weddings. I have won many Awards, and samples of my work over a
30 year career are on display at my studio at the vineyard – they include
landscapes, floral and animal subjects and portraits. I use the latest digital
technology to enable me to provide quick views for my clients, and present the final
work in a wide range of formats and styles. Why not ring me up and book a
sitting - a portrait makes a wonderful gift!
