An art exhibition presenting the work of three artists inspired by nature: Emily Ingrey-Counter, Nye Hughes and Simon Griffiths.
The exhibition includes pastels drawings, watercolours and ceramic sculptures depicting the landscapes and wildlife of East coast of Scotland.
Emily and Nye are both based in Edinburgh and draw much inspiration from their local environment in the Lothians.
Emily creates fresh and energetic drawings of the natural world through direct and immediate mark making. Most of her work is created outdoors capturing fleeting moments and visceral experiences of nature through her use of mixed media (pastels, ink, charcoal and paint).
Nye is an artist and designer who first came to Scotland to study and never left. The main focus of his artwork is the remarkable ecology of the Scottish coast and islands and the wildlife and plants that inhabit them. In this exhibition, Nye presents watercolour paintings created on locations along the East Lothian coast, the Bass Rock and the Isle of May.
Simon, a sculptor based in County Durham, captures in ceramics the wildlife that surrounds him in the north Pennines. His work is full of textures and movement that successfully evoke the presence of the animals depicted.
