Richard Whadcock
Richard Whadcock is a British artist born in Birmingham in 1967. He is a contemporary artist specializing in atmospheric landscape paintings. His contemporary landscape paintings explore the South Downs and East Sussex coast. Trying to capture its ever-changing dramatic atmosphere from silent stillness to squally days. The South Downs are only a starting point as the paintings themselves eventually take over and follow their path creating their unique surface landscape. He studied Fine Art at Bristol Polytechnic from 1986–89, where the work crossed between painting and printmaking. He then went on to study for his MA at the Royal College of Art specializing in printmaking. He utilized etching but mainly lithography due to its closeness to painting. Alongside these, he would also paint with all these disciplines feeding each other and expanding ideas. After leaving college, Whadcock was awarded a residency at the Lowick House Print Workshop in Cumbria and more recently, 2014, he was also awarded a two-week residency at Cill Rialaig artists village in Kerry, Ireland. His studio has been part of the Phoenix Arts studios in Brighton for the last 15 years. It is one of the largest artist lead organizations remaining. His work has been collected nationally and internationally.

About the Artist
Jenn Williamson expertly evokes the scenery of British Columbia in her soft abstract landscapes. She utilizes defining horizontal and vertical strokes, coupled with a skillful handling of color, to create significant depth in each piece. Her paintings, though abstracted, clearly convey the atmospheric attributes of the scene–rain, wind, clouds, fog. Jenn’s muted color palette transports the viewer to the Canadian west...
