Another sneak peek at some of the work of our wonderful artists showing at this weekends ARTFEST 2026 being hosted by Warsash SC.

Here we see work by Sue Powell of Pebbles in the Sand. Ron Moody, Alison Evans and Gemma Donegan, Little Glass Robin.

Sue is a wet-felting artist, blending the colours of dyed fleeces with soapy water, until it felts. Her inspiration comes mainly from the local coastal life. She is an established artist who has recently moved to the area, and whose work has been included in the Imago Mundi, Luciano Benetton Collection. Further examples of her work can be found on her website: www.pebblesinthesand.co.uk


Ron Moody - Watercolour & Acrylic Paintings.
Although I have always had an interest in visual art, I have had no formal tuition apart from my apprentice training as an engineering draughtsman. I started painting in the mid 1990’s and have since developed a unique quirky style which has proved popular at local exhibitions and with the buying public. I use bright vibrant colours to produce paintings that are easy on the eye and perhaps bring a smile.

Alison Evans, Ceramics
Alison has been working on a special collection just for ArtFest! Beautiful coastal inspired pieces - a real treat for your home!

Gemma Donegan, Glass Fusion Art
Gemma designs and makes playful, nature-inspired fused glass ornaments, pictures and hanging decorations. Much of her work is mounted on locally sourced driftwood and often features cheeky seabirds, inspired by her love of the coast.

Introducing….
SEA CLAY STUDIO – Polymer Clay Jewellery
Jo Milne is the self-taught artist behind Sea Clay Studio. Always obsessed with the small details seen on her beloved coastal walks, Jo brings this inspiration into the design of her lightweight and versatile polymer clay jewellery and accessories. Carefully considering colour, texture, shape and pattern, she creates jewellery in cohesive collections, always with a subtly present coastal theme.
See Jo working on a new jewellery collection at her stand during ArtFest!

CSTAR DESIGN, Glass Fusion
We are a sister duo, Cathy and Lisa, who have been making, creating and working with glass since 2005. We work together and individually, creating various works from leaded light panels, fused glass art, to beautiful lampwork jewellery.
The majority of our work is predominantly all about colour, the brighter the better. Our glass fusion is based on combining, the feel of stained glass and the strong leadlines against the pop of vibrant colour.
We will be bring art pieces and functional ware all from our Kaleidoscope range.


SOPHIE SCOTT DESIGNS
I am a Scottish artist and graphic designer, living in Hampshire. The prints that I produce are mainly coastal and inspired by my love of the sea and islands. I have a range of South Coast location prints and greetings cards as well as some fun botanical / typographic prints that mix the old with the new.

EMMA PRIDAL, LEMON YELLOW LETTERING
Modern calligraphy and lettering is an absolute obsession with me.
I love nothing better than creating beautiful pieces of work with inks and pens and brushes, expressing words and sentiments with a flick of a hand.
​
I have created and run many modern calligraphy courses and nothing gives me more pleasure than passing on my knowledge and joy of calligraphy. From pointed pen to chalk, from brush to iPad, there is a calligraphy style and medium that will suit everyone. lettering
