Jenny McLaren graduated with a BA in Fine Art from the UHI Millennium Institute, Moray College in 2006. Although she now lives in the Lake District, she returns frequently to the spectacular scenery of the North West Highlands and the Hebrides where she finds inspiration in the breathtaking views and birdlife.
Jenny bonds maps onto wood and then seals them with a clear acrylic gesso to provide a suitable surface for painting with acrylic inks and watercolour. |

Anna de Ville
|
Anna de Ville (b.1948) has her workshop in Birmingham and is mostly self-taught as a jeweller. Her jewellery is distinctive for its use of contrasting polished and oxidised silver and the inspiration she takes from the natural world and in particular, birds. She makes earrings, brooches, necklaces and cufflinks. Some pieces are available only as limited edition pieces and her most spectacular unique pieces often incorporate gold detailing, gems and semi-precious stones.
