Linda Baker
Being a self taught abstract artist I am always looking for new ideas, tips and hints in fact anything that will help me improve my paintings. I am inspired by things I see and the different ways nature presents itself. Sometimes my finished painting is not what I started out to paint but I find it creative to change things along the way. |

Nanette Randall
I have been painting in various mediums for most of my life. For
about 10 years I had a passion for watercolour. Then having been introduced
to mixed media, I was encouraged to try acrylics. I have been exploring the
landscape first in an impressionistic style, then in an abstract way using
mixed media, collage and texture which has given my work a new dimension. I
am at present working on the abstract form.
