Will Cutts' depictions of Norfolk and Suffolk landscapes capture the hidden byways and open views painted plein-air in an open, fluid, contemporary way, in traditional oils or watercolour. He paints on board or canvas. Will's work reminds us that the patterns and abstracted consequences of highly mechanised farming impact the visual experience we have of our rural surroundings in the UK. While achieving visual harmony in his image making, his viewpoints are carefully selected to give viewers a sense of familiarity, while showing us something new about these ancient roads, hedgerows, open fields and woodlands.

Cecilia Willis has a background in interior decorating, working in a quintessentially English Country House style, a move to live in Japan for a few years proved to be a revelation for Cecilia. Her beautifully balanced ceramics marry the best of both worlds. With a profound appreciation of a Japanese aesthetic and this together with her decorators eye has influenced her creative work ever since. Cecilia loves the generosity of the bowl form, seeking a simplicity and elegance of shape and striving to create glazes of luminous colour and depth for her pieces. Her bowls and dishes are intended as much for the decoration of a space as for the serving of food.
