Britain's What's On Event Guide
Textures of Dorset: An Art Exhibition in Card and Felt
This is a unique opportunity to view these talented artists together at one venue. Both Dorset artists, Jenny Penney (Relief Sculpted Landscapes & Ink Drawings) & Di Pattinson (Felt & Textiles) are inspired by our natural world, especially Dorset. Their works are unique in their own art forms and each are made out of natural materials. Jenny starts every piece of work with a detailed drawing in ink pens (some of which will be on view) before selecting the shapes and colours for the next stage. She produces her landscape pictures by cutting out card and layering it into what she calls Relief Sculpted Landscapes. The complex pictures are strikingly individual, contrasting from other artist's interpretation of iconic Dorset views. Jenny is also selling printed products of her original images which transfer very successfully giving the viewer the false impression that the prints are also in relief! Mugs, bags, coasters and cards also available. Contact: Jenny on 07711460372 / Email: jennyvp@outlook.com

Di creates 2D and 3D art work using various types of fleece and natural fibres. Feltmaking is the oldest know method of making a fabric and it has always fascinated Di how a seemingly delicate fleece can be manipulated to create a tough durable fabric. She works with undyed and dyed fleece and takes a painterly approach when creating her 2D pieces, laying down the background and blending colours to give a multiplicity of shades and tones. She then carries on with a process called wet felting. Di uses a needle felting technique to add finer details. The complex textures and detail give interest and intrigue. Her 3D pieces are more functional and again the design ideas come from natural forms. Each piece is entirely unique. Some are wall hangings and others will decorate a lonely cupboard or table-top. Contact: Di on 01305813539/ Email: di@feltandtextileart.co.uk. This is an exhibition not to be missed.
