Having met as two self taught artists, Fiona with watercolours and acrylics and myself (Dean) with oils, we found that not only did we find each other very appealing to the eye, but we were also kindred spirits who shared the same dream.
This dream was of being able one day to show and maybe even sell our artwork. And so we joined forces in life and work and opened a shop/studio hoping to sell our art. We soon realised it isn’t possible to make a living just on paintings alone, so we began to experiment, making a variety of other things, now mainly things made from wild wood and fabric.
We have also made the move from the shop/studio and are currently on Chesterfield outdoor market on Saturdays {weather permitting} and in the indoor market of Alfreton on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays.
If you are in Chesterfield on Saturdays, please feel free to come and browse our stall and say hello !
May we just also say that having a love of nature, the wood we use is never taken from a live tree; ,we only use wood that we have found already fallen on our many walks or 'wood hunts'. We love trees too much to harm them. Needless to say we love what we do, making things and feel very privileged to do this as a living, and we try to keep our prices as low as possible to make our work available to everyone.
Hopefully you too will love what you see and spend lots of your hard earned pennies with us. Thank you for taking time to read this.Blessed be,
Dean and Fiona.
