Cornwall Visit

I visited lots of art galleries while I was in Cornwall, as a lot of the art was inspired by the sea- side I felt like I'd seen a lot of it before, but I also saw a lot of interesting work. At New Craftsman Gallery at St Ives I saw a really interesting sculptural ceramicist called Matthew Chambers, inspired by geometrics, architecture and constructivist art. He layers many sections within each piece of art work which is easy to see. His use of colour also adds other dimensions, helping to creating very dramatic pieces.

Another artist I admired was glass jewellery artist Sally Carver, who sets sea scenes vividly into her work. I also liked her use of colour, texture and movement throughout her work. www.redhotsal.co.uk
