C-Art is Cumbria’s largest visual arts project, awarded ‘Tourism Event of the Year’ at the Cumbria Tourism Awards 2014. This year around 200 artists, designers and independent galleries will open their doors to the public from 13 – 28 September. Co-ordinated

by Eden Arts, C-Art promotes and celebrates Cumbria’s abundant creative talent, inviting visitors to step into the gallery and beyond to see art, buy art, explore the landscape and meet the makers.

In addition to the popular open studios and gallery events, this year’s C-Art will feature ‘C-Art in Extraordinary Places’ - artists working in extraordinary locations, a new award for a Young Cumbrian Artist of the Year, and selected Micro-Commissions in the landscape, as well as a host of exhibitions, workshops and associated events.

It’s a perfect time of year to experience Cumbria’s beautiful landscape and to see art situated in some of the UK’s most picturesque towns and villages. See how work is made, talk to artists, watch demonstrations and visit private studios that are usually closed to the public.

Visit the C-Art website for updates and more information: www.c-art.org.uk

Wolves, bison and deer roam the studio, alongside paintings of their habitat. I see the animals as Guardian Spirits, symbols of wilderness, and its loss... meditations on both the resilience and fragility of life. Much of the work references deep time, but recently images of WW1 have appeared; a warning against a certain mind-set and continuing the exploration of pathos and memory. I have exhibited nationally and in several international shows.

Renuka Saxena8 I use drawing, painting and mixed media to express a poetry of nature, bearing witness to the play of light and dark, and relationships of colours. Seemingly chance juxtapositions resolve into the significant horizon, silhouette or lines of motion. I wish my work to reflect a state of presence. I am working on new works using ink, watercolours, and oils on paper and canvas.

Delia Stevens10 My watercolour impressions are inspired by the north west of Cumbria. Though little known by comparison with the Lake District, the quality of light and space on the Solway Firth and the ever changing sky often tempts me out to paint. In contrast, ink drawings and more detailed paintings of flowers, people and animals show a different aspect of my work.

Rebecca Payn33 As a painter and printmaker I work in a variety of media. I particularly love the immediacy and subtlety of oil paint and with it, exploring that exciting area between description and abstraction – where the smallest nuances of paint, both intended and accidental, play an important role in the picture as a whole.

Themes include people, interiors and still lives.

When one pattern meets another, its integrity is disrupted, and a transformative process takes place, undermining the value of a perfect form.

This research includes: expanding the potential of serial composition and the Modernist grid; exploring spatial ambiguity and pictorial illusionism; and examining the relationship of abstract art to design and craft, by using pattern, repetition, and symmetry. I am also interested in testing the claims of expressionism by combining chance and self-reflexive production procedures.

Linda Moore60 Linda has been creating a portfolio of large panoramic photographs of Cumbria since 1999, questioning people’s need to find psychological space in the Lake District: This evolved from an interdisciplinary fine art degree looking at societies need to ‘evolve to fit,’ in order to survive. Her photomontages show ‘layers of life.’ Visually, her paintings and printmaking are mainly colourful sunsets and textural waterfalls.

Becky Eden61 I work with wool to make useful items and decorative artwork. I love the simple process of combining wool with water, they are both abundant in Cumbria! I use hardwearing wool for slippers, naturals for the sheep, and silks/threads for decoration. Wool has great natural properties; renewable, warm, flame resistant, strong and breathable. I am always happy to chat about wool, felting and sheep! (online at ‘Felt from the Fields’)

Julia Stanton62 This year we are holding two exhibitions at the new Sharrow Gallery at Thwaitehill Farm, overlooking Ullswater. One is the first stage of our Faces of Ullswater project, for which Julia Stanton and Gina Farncombe are painting the portraits of people local to Ullswater born between the two world wars. The second is an exhibition of Julia’s landscapes, birds, and still lifes. Both artists have very different styles, making for an exciting and provocative exhibition.

Mark also uses mixed print media i.e. reduction wood and lino blocks, dry point, carborundum and etching, to create vibrant and unique images. For Mark, making pictures is an attempt to share the excitement of the “noticing” of a light effect, a colour combination or a composition.

I remain deeply interested in the process of printmaking, and in how methods such as collagraph and monoprint present their own opportunities and unforeseen paths of investigation. I love creating subtle surfaces on printing plates, mostly by unorthodox, low-tech means, and connecting their printed appearance to the textures I see in the landscapes around me in Cumbria. Sometimes these textures find their way into clay and become a ceramic piece.

My recent oil on canvas paintings are in the old tradition of landscape, and yet are out-of-the-ordinary Cumbrian landscapes.

Inspired by The Impressionist Movement, my style is bold and bright, the brushwork energetic. As a former photojournalist, I’m now exploring a relatively peaceful and cathartic environment, such is my response to the landscape where I live and work now. I will also be exhibiting some of my paintings during C-Art at Goosewell Farm, in Keswick.

A big influence on current artwork is my course at Leith School of Art which has pushed me to use oil paint and colour more expressively than my predominantly self-taught methods ever managed!

Keith Snell121 Surrounded by the Cumbrian landscape, it would be surprising if this were not reflected in my images. But a passion for travel also influences the sources for my inspiration. However, I have moved away from a representational photographic style towards a more impressionistic approach, often painterly. And often it is the details in the landscape rather than the broader sweep which capture my attention. Expect the unexpected!

Landscape, seascape, journeys and animals provide my inspiration. I allow images to develop freely in pen, charcoal and oil, painting in the attic studio of my home.

Anna Blair149 I am a textile artist, I create silk shibori wall art and accessories. My inspiration comes from the natural world, with subtle but intricate details of plants and flowers reflecting empathetically the textures I create within my work. I use traditional shibori binding techniques and incorporate a modern twist by using the process to add a three dimensional texture to fabrics and the use of digital print to add colour.

Jonathan Leech150 I have a passion for working with wood, expressing its natural beauty within a contemporary design. All my timber is locally sourced and is obtained sustainably, for example from fallen or storm damaged trees. My preferred style is ‘minimalist’, using a simple design which allows the wood to express its own qualities. This often includes natural edges, knot-holes, burrs, spalting, and other naturally-occurring imperfections.

Each piece is truly unique.
