Inspired by the Coast – Kathleen Ashcroft
This month we introduce emerging artist Kathleen Ashcroft. Kathleen lives in South Devon and runs along the coast path near her house most days. Her keen interest in the built heritage and history on the stretch of coastline near her home played an influential role when it came to her recent Arts degree in 3D Design and Crafts. Lighthouses in particular were the source of inspiration for her stunning geometric jewellery designs made from recycled metals.
Keep your eyes peeled this summer!
Every year, the Marine Conservation Society and citizen scientists, like you, are on the lookout for jellyfish and marine turtles around the UK. From May-September, jellyfish arrive in UK waters in their hundreds, attracting turtles to feed here, too. If you spot jellyfish or turtles on your trip to the coast this summer, the Marine Conservation Society want to hear all about it.
Inspired by the Coast – Tamsyn Trevorrow
Sculptor Tamsyn Trevorrow’s artwork takes inspiration from her enduring relationship with the sea and coastline of West Cornwall. The fired and glazed pieces reflect the textures and colours of this rugged stretch of coastline home to mining heritage, wild ocean vistas, and awe-inspiring granite rock formations.
