Being based in Cornwall has certainly influenced the style of the gallery which focuses around the concept of 'edges' and 'boundaries' - where land meets sky – a celebration of the flora and fauna of our countryside, and ruggedness of our natural coastline.
I love what I do, the people I meet, the artists that I represent, and I hope that that enthusiasm shows in every interaction.
100% made by hand. Obsessive attention to detail, style & quality.
Sourced directly from our makers and creators. A truly independent outlet.
Delivering excellent customer service. Spreading the joy of art ownership.
Aisleigh is a Cornwall based artist whose work is a deeply intuitive relationship with the landscape. Through expressive mark-making, she captures not just a place, but its essence - a fleeting moment, a feeling. Growing up in South Devon, she was always drawn to the outdoors, finding inspiration in the ever-changing landscape.
"I love both banks of the Camel Estuary and have walked or cycled along much of it in both directions. From the war memorial on the Padstow side or from Brea Hill on the Rock side, the views are spectacular and you can watch the weather change in an instant. Favourite spots are the beautiful churchyard at Porthilly and the dunes around St Enodoc church on the walk to Daymer Bay. Despite the area’s popularity it’s still possible to escape and find some solitude."

In my studio fractured memories unravel, spill out and combine. I’m an avid collector of ceramics and a lover of nature so these things emerge naturally. Someone’s yellow sweater may appear in disguise on the canvas. That yellow may present as a vase but it may disappear under a layer of red, shift across the canvas and turn into a tree. Akin to a game of chess, the work can be taken in many directions... I add, remove and work into the canvas, the finished work is a resolution of ideas.
