Wiltshire and Beyond. Watercolours by Frank Scrivener.
Watercolours by Frank Scrivener.
Corsham artist Frank Scrivener has always loved drawing. Working in the building industry as an architectural draughtsman helped his understanding of buildings and being able to portray them in the landscape.
Having decided that watercolour was the medium he wanted to use he met and was very much influenced by the work of James Fletcher Watson a wonderful Cotswold artist. Local artist Steve Hall has also been an inspiration to Frank.
Please join Frank for the opening exhibition at the Old Mill on Saturday 1 July 2017. We will be serving refreshments between 11am - 4pm.

Giclee Prints by Kay Gretton
Kay Gretton [née Barcham]
Kay was brought up in Marston and went to school at Worton, Lavington and Dauntsey schools. She trained as a peripatetic teacher at Dartington College of Arts and then taught in Kent, where she married and had three sons.
She started painting in 2006, having suddenly developed M.E. and Fibromyalgia. She became disabled, losing her 26-year career as a manager, ‘cello/double bass teacher and orchestral conductor at Kent Music School.
Having lost the ability to teach, play and conduct, her creativity has been redirected through art. She says: “I have found painting to be an inspiration, giving me a new lease of life at a time when I had lost all my self-confidence and purpose to my life. I’m sure that it has helped with my recovery, especially as I am now enjoying a second artistic career, selling my works widely.”
She works from life, photos and her imagination. She has developed a distinctive divisional style of painting depicting the changing of seasons through a year or light changes through a day, using watercolour, pen and ink or acrylics.
