Outside-In
8 – 13 June
From representational townscapes to expressive landscapes and abstract, organic 3D forms, art navigates that outside-in continuity between what is observed, what is felt, and what is externalised through the art made in response to our outdoor spaces.
For the artist, depending on the day and the variables like light, atmosphere, and weather, what is interesting is that external-internal scene is in a constant state of flux.
This exhibition of work created in response to external spaces brings the outdoors in. It will evolve over the week, mixing work created in the moment with work created on reflection. From Sunday onwards, it will incorporate a collection of work created in the moment, en plein air, in direct response to the space outside of this gallery, as we showcase some of the best work from the Watch This Space en plein air art competition.

Junction 12 Art Group Summer Exhibition
13-19 July 2022
10am-5pm daily
Presenting a wide range of abstract and representational artworks from seven members of Junction 12 Art Group.
Junction 12 Art Group is an exciting Gloucestershire collective of creative and enthusiastic artists who collaborate and show their original art work. The group offers a diverse range of talent, working across a range of styles and media. The seven exhibiting artists will all be stewarding during the week, and look forward to meeting you. You are invited to join the group for their private view Friday 13 July 6-8pm.
Ann Hunt is a retired veterinary surgeon who has exchanged a syringe and scalpel for a paint brush to enable her love and knowledge of wildlife to help with conservation projects in a gentler way. Having spent time as a volunteer in an elephant rescue orphanage in Zambia, she is passionate about helping with their ongoing welfare. Please come and enjoy her work and chat about the elephants, and you will be able to hear the amazing story of Mutaanzi David.
Gerald Crittle will be exhibiting his big and bold abstracts created in mixed media. His work is experimental, it starts by adding texture to a board before adding different paints and inks. Gerald explained “I am not trying to replicate anything recognisable but to create a work that takes the viewer to a faraway galaxy or some other unknown place. Hopefully, they will keep seeing new shapes and patterns in my work.” Much of Gerald’s work is finished with resin which highlights the colours in the painting.
Martyn Dymott has recently expanded the range of media that he uses to paint by turning to a painting application on a tablet to produce landscapes, portraits, figurative subjects and some new abstracts. Some pieces are produced on aluminium dibond as one-off originals and others are printed as giclée prints in small limited editions. Martyn is deliberately sharing examples of his new digital paintings this year to raise the awareness of this emerging way of painting amongst the gallery’s visitors.
Natalie Bowden is an artist living in the beautiful Cotswolds. She loves to express my personality and those of her subjects through the use of vibrant colours and movement. Her favourite medium is watercolour – for its fluidity, luminescence, and unpredictable nature. Painting in watercolour is always an experiment! Natalie’s watercolour journey began at an art class in her local village hall when her youngest was a baby. While she had always been creative, spending much of her childhood drawing and crafting, her true passion for painting sparked during early parenthood. She soon developed my own style – not by design but by simply painting with the flow, wherever the feeling took her.
Sarah Goddard is a mixed-media abstract artist who draws inspiration from the colours, shapes, textures and patterns of the natural world, which can calm or enliven us. We all see the world around us differently and our experiences impact on how we perceive our surroundings. Being sight-impaired, Sarah brings different perceptions and representations of the world to her art. She aims to embody the emotional experiences prompted by nature, and snapshots of the way she sees the world. Creating art is an essentially human way of communicating emotions, and Sarah is driven to creativity to express herself. Over the last two years, this has included creating art inspired by her experience of living with Long Covid, and the restorative power of time spent in nature.
Acrylic artist Tamsin Stuart shares some of her latest creations full of energy and life. Her horses run free and her kingfisher is poised for lunch. A kickboxer and martial artist, Cheltenham-based Tamsin is rather obsessed with movement and colour, and likes her subjects to be active and bursting with life. Some of her favourite subjects are birds, animals, nature, water, sport and, more recently, buildings, but she’ll have a go at anything that inspires her. Her painting of Pittville Pump Room has been used extensively by The Cheltenham Trust to promote the popular heritage site.
Wendy Golding is a Gloucester-based abstract artist who creates abstracted landscapes and abstract paintings in acrylic, ink and mixed media, and explores emotional connections to an area rather than a purely realistic approach. This allows the viewer to connect to the painting with their emotions first, letting them reflect and explore the artist’s choice of colour, texture and mark-making.

My work is primarily concerned with nature and landscape, but not simply to represent them. I aim to explore our human reactions to them through use of colour and line, and, more importantly, how one’s feelings change, perhaps with the light, or the time of day.
Through colour one may perhaps help someone look at everyday things in a new way, by putting a different emotion into the painting from that which is expected.
I find water and rivers especially fascinating because one sees simultaneously into the depth and across the surface in the reflections; they have an ever-present ambiguity.
Our perceptions of things are rarely simple and can change for many reasons – as the light changes, the feelings we have at that moment, or depending on the history of the object seen. I hope that you will see some of these varying perceptions in my paintings.
