COURTNEY HELSBY

I will be bring my ships for the first time to the 6th edition of the Doncaster Art Fair. I am interested in the notions of life and death, violence and vulnerability. I often question the worth of animals compared to humans and the practical implications of the industries. My intention is to strip life away from the animal symbolising commodification stemming from this dichotomy I compare the composite animal to objects of possession representing the point where the innocent become the exploited and the controlled. The lamb heads are symbolic to the new-borns whom are stripped and separated from their mothers and killed whilst they are only a few months old for the sake of human consumption. Alternatively, my work can be read not only to represent the upon thousands of the separated and lost lambs, but can be relatable and metaphorical to people too. Be sure to come and see them on Sunday 8th Dec. at the Magdalen and the wool market.

GILLIAN O'NEIL

I have exhibited several times at the Doncaster art fair and I am pleased to say that I will be there with my watercolor collection for this christmas edition.

DIANE WRIGHT

I will be coming back to Doncaster art fair for the second time to show my new collection. Much of my inspiration comes from the coastline of the North East of England, where I spend as much time as I can painting in Staithes and gathering as much reference material as possible to use back in my studio. I love to change the materials that I use, I find it pushes me forward and keeps my creative ideas flowing,watercolours, oils, charcoals,acrylics, gold leaf, all feature in my work. Be sure to come and find me on Sunday 8th Dec from 10am -4PM at the magdalen and the wool market. Buy art this christmas.

TEREANA COURTNEY

This will be my third time at the Doncaster art fair. I was born in Doncaster and my current age is 32. I studied art up to A level in college however did not pursue any further due to becoming a young mother, I have always had a great love for art however for a few years life lead me down another path. I started painting again a few years back and have sold commissioned pieces and have been complemented on my talent, the timing in my life along with more confidence and my passion has made me wish to show my art. I work with a variety of mediums such as acrylic, inks, polychromos pencils, pouring mediums, textiles and art resin. This is usually produced on primed boards to give a sturdier base for my work. I usually work in an abstract form mainly focusing on a good use of colour to make my work eye-catching. I also use embellishments to create a 3-D effect so that the touch of my work brings extra character Sunday 8th Dec from 10-4pm. See you there.

JULIAN MALBY

This will be my second time exhibiting through Doncaster Art Fair. I've always felt the main purpose of making art revolved around an idea of communication. Reflecting areas of interest relevant to the engaged artist. As a practising artist I want to express what I “see”, feel, and render an image accordingly. This method produces a wealth of varying styles that I have developed through 30 years exploring and playing with materials. My work holds elements of abstraction and representation (occasionally in the same image), that is manipulated through these found processes. Typically I work with drawing media and paint across a range of sizes. These images have led me to successfully exhibit nationally through a wealth of galleries. Please come along and see the work I offer.

STEVE DAVIS

I will be exhibiting my collection of works for the very first time at the 6th edition of Doncaster art fair. Originally from Australia and now resident in Doncaster, my paintings tell the stories of my daily life as experienced through my family, the people around me and the places we have been. I am currently working with gouache and ink on paper to create abstracted pictures that use shape and colour to create what I at least hope will be a visually poetic response to my subject.

PAUL FREEMAN

I am pleased to say that I will be coming back to the Doncaster art fair for the 3rd time, for the BUY ART FOR CHRISTMAS edition. Doncaster Art Fair.
I am a Rotherham based Landscape artist having returned to painting 43 years after leaving school, following a chance invitation to join a local art group. My approach is to take photos and or make sketches to be worked later in the studio. The most important element is always the light captured as representational or sometimes abstracted art using watercolour and acrylic medium pushed to give contemporary effects. The paintings are finding their way into homes around the country which is a great Privilege and motivation

TRACEY MOORE

I will be returning to the Doncaster art fair on Sunday 8th due to the popular demand for my work.
My name is Tracey Moore and I make unique Silk Painted
accessories and art works.
New work for the December Art Fair will include my new collection
looking at Agates and my “Under the microscope” pieces, looking
at nature up close.
Meeting the people who visit the Art Fair and hearing their stories
inspires me to make more. As I paint each piece, I am inspired by
the thought that someone somewhere will be wearing my art, a
frame with a heartbeat.
Following a dream of owning my own gift shop I opened Yorkshire
Dragonfly in April 2016
My shop name Yorkshire Dragonfly, well...... like a Dragonfly, I love;
colour, flitting from one beautiful scene to another, being easily
distracted, food and of course Yorkshire. Everything in my shop is
unique and handmade by me, even my wrapping with a White Rose
wax seal to reflect my love for my inspirational home county.

KATRINE BARBER

After a very successful first exhibition at the Doncaster art fair, I am pleased to be returning for the BUY ART FOR CHRISTMAS edition on Dec. 8th from 10-4pm.
I’m influenced by the simple idea of creating beautiful objects which complement and enhance their surroundings. I spend hours hand building, shaping, burnishing and/or texturizing my pots before an initial firing followed by either smoke firing in a pit or applying colour. Pots are then waxed and finished as simply as possible, not using glazes retains the tactile nature of that simple material, clay, encouraging the viewer to touch and hold them.

HELEN ATKIN
