Venue 19 | Blue route Check website for details: www.hazelrockhouse.com/ forth-vallery-art0beat/

Recently liberated Art teacher, Christine, will be running a linocut workshop from her studio on Monday 10th and Tuesday 11th from 1.30pm until 4.30pm., with a 20 minute tea break. These sessions will be for grown ups only; due to the nature of the tools involved. It will be a two part event; day one will include an introduction to materials and using tools, followed by drawing up, and transferring an image onto the lino. Day two will be spent learning how to cut and print a simple image; overlaying more than one colour from the same block. If you are taking part you might like to bring an image which you find inspiring or just interesting. Linocut is a relief printing technique, and in its simplest form is very straightforward. The aim of this course is to explore the possibilities of the medium, while keeping it simple.

Emma will be running a number of events and workshops working with soap and glass. Check the website shown above for details.

The cost will be £35.00 for the two afternoons (all materials will be provided). A maximum of four spaces are available. Please phone 07906 518086 to book ahead.

Being an artist has always been and is a great adventure. I have travelled and exhibited in many countries and have been privileged to have collaborated with many artists at home and abroad. My art is challenging. Opening my studio and sharing my experience is important to me. I am an expressive figurative painter well regarded in my field. The human condition is my concern. Please come along and visit. Younger members of the family are most welcome. I look forward to your visit.

Jeremy paints and runs a pottery in a therapeutic community. His themes include myths, nature, lanscape and the odd cat. Lucia finds enchantment in every creative activity, and believes arts and crafts help people connect to each other and make sense of their lives . Fee will exhibit striking and beautiful images photographed whilst on her varied at home and abroad travels.

Rachel uses slate, stone and glass to create mosaic artwork that is full of texture and visual interest.

Directions: Braco is on the A822 off the A9 just north of Dunblane. Smiddy Brae is in the centre of the village beside the hotel/restaurant. Look for the life-sized blue horse-head on the gable. Lys is pleased to talk to you and show you work, with tea.

Directions: Head into Dunblane up the Perth Road, across the fourways roundabout and on past the Doubletree Hotel. In 1/4 mile turn left after the pelican crossing onto Daniel Avenue. Lawder Place is 100m on your right, we will have bunting out!

After a break from painting whilst raising a family and working as a teacher, I have begun to make expressive portraits and semi-abstract landscapes. I work predominately in oil on canvas.

Tillyrie Crafts specialises in sterling silver jewellery with freshwater pearls and semi precious stones. I also love sewing with Harris Tweed and Liberty of London fabrics and knitting with unusual yarns. My love of nature is evident in my work. A warm welcome awaits with tea, coffe and home baking (hopefully in the garden). Plants are sold in aid of Strathcarron Hospice.

We are fifteen artists who have been successfully exhibiting together for almost two decades. We offer an exciting diversity of styles and different media - from figurative and abstract work, expressive landscapes, assemblages, textiles, printmaking and ceramics. In fact something for everyone.Our work will be exhibited for the whole of June at Dunblane Museum, inclusive of the Art Beat week.

In oils and acrylics, my work is mainly landscapes, although many of my commissions include people and animals. Living and working in Dunblane, I’m inspired by the stunning scenery around here, and by the rugged beauty of the west coast and the western isles. I’ve had work shown at the RSA, London; The Royal Institute for Fine Arts and was a finalist in the BBC One Show artist of the year.

My work is based on images taken around the local area, Painting in oil or pastel, I love to focus on natural shapes silhouetted against the Scottish sky and draw endless inspiration from the trees around me. I also provide the enormously popular Creativity and Craic paint and sip events helping people to socialise and enjoy creating no matter their level of ability.

Directions: Dunblane museum is situated on a corner opposite Dunblane Cathedral. There is a free public carpark at the Haining behind the Cathedral. Sat.nav. FK15 0AQ. PLEASE NOTE The exhibition will be open six days a week 10.30am - 4.30pm. Closed on Sunday.

I started as a wood carver 7 years ago and progressed into wood turning and other techniques. Therefore I offer a wide range of items from wood. They are all unique as the base material is a natural material and has its own character. The wood I use is mostly local and from sustainable sources. I use several techniques to form sought after unique gifts.

Stirling Baptist is lucky to be full of talented artists. We have a wide variety of mediums and styles to see here, from realistic to abstract and from photography to ceramics. There is something to interest everyone here. While our work might all be different, the artists here are committed to supporting each other and the Arts in this community. Come by for a cuppa, chat, and see the artwork!

G.O.S.S.I.P. are a voluntary, artist run collective, open to all. Our aim is to create opportunities, collaborate and support contemporary arts projects.

Directions: For all directions (M9, M80) turn off for Stirling Services. Take A91, then fi rst left (Brucefield Golf Centre) a country road. Take second drive on the right (Muiralehouse Road). Last house on the right.

Painting at my best, my images emerge from an colourful, compelling surface of oil, charcoal, ink and pastel. Suggestive material gives rise to evocative landscapes and historically imagined townscapes, vividly peopled. As Historic Environment Scotland’s first resident Stirling Castle artist it was here I developed this freeing, spontaneous method that I can demonstrate when you visit my studio.

Jim studied Drawing and Painting at Edinburgh College of Art (1958-1962) when Wiliam Gillles was Principal, under Robin Phillipson, John Houston and Charles Pulsford. Started making ceramics in the early 70s in my studio in Manchester. All my pots are fired in a gas kiln under reduction conditions, in the Japanese tradition, as introduced by Bernard Leache and Hamada in the early 50s.

Camphill Blair Drummond provides a creative and therapeutic environment for both residential and day students with complex learning difficulties.

Directions: My studio at Royal Gardens Apartments is immediately to the left of The Smith Museum and Art Gallery, Albert Place, Stirling. Take junction 10 off the M9 motorway and follow signs for Stirling.

Directions: Weir Street runs between Raploch Road and the smaller Forth Valley College Community Campus. Turning off Raploch Rd, we are in the 1st cul-de-sac on the left. There is pedestrian only access to Weir St from FVC Community Campus. Sat Navs work fine.

Directions: From Stirling take A84 towards Callander. About 3/4 mile past Safari Park turn right(signposted Camphill, Cuthil Brae, Campsite) Straight on over hill and cattle grid. Follow road round to second cattle grid, park by castle, exhibition inside castle.

Shonah Escombe works with glass using a range of techniques including stained glass, copper foiling and fused glass. Her designs are contemporary and fun. May Anderson paints everything from bowls to chairs in traditional canal art style.

I’m a freelance television director, filmmaker and photographer, and live close to the Trossachs National Park, Stirling. I’m passionate about shooting landscapes on film, and often those close to home.

I use vintage photographs, including found images or old family photographs as well as magazines and books. I either use these items on their own or incorporate them into drawings, prints, collage and mixed media works, in an attempt to capture different moods and highlight a dialogue somewhere between the fiction and the reality of relationships and try to reconstruct fragile hidden narratives.

I am a professional Artist specialising in printmaking and painting. Working “Plein Air” is key to the painting and print I finish in my purpose built studio. I draw and paint wherever I go, coastlines and people are my inspiration. Weather permitting the Gazebo and my painting shelter will be in the garden both weekends with drawing things for both children and grown ups so you can have a go.
