Meet the Artists
Erica Ankers
Erica is a distinguished semi abstract landscape artist based in the picturesque South West, known for her ability to fuse the natural beauty of the countryside with imaginative abstract elements, creating artworks that resonate with both the heart and mind.
In her creative process, Erica often starts with plein air sketches and photographs, immersing herself in the landscapes that inspire her. Back in her studio, she transforms these references into dynamic compositions using a combination of media.
Her paintings invite viewers to embark on a visual journey, experiencing the familiar beauty of nature through a fresh, abstract perspective.
Andy Pearce
Andy has lived and painted in Newquay for over 30 years and now has the privilege of running his own gallery, SaltWalls, where he displays his artwork alongside that of other locals artists.
His process involves watercolour sketches and photos which are then used to create original acrylics and oils in the studio. He is fortunate to have his studio overlooking his shop in Newquay.
He has a deep connection with the coast of Cornwall and loves to paint the ever changing light that we have around our coast.
Debbie Martin
Debbie is a paper cut artist living and working in Cornwall. As a mature student, she completed a UAL Art Diploma in Nottingham and found the joy of working with a scalpel to create stencils. Soon after, she moved to Cornwall and found inspiration from living by the sea. Her artwork is original, vibrant in colour and often playful in design.
Sam Bradbury
Sam is a Penryn artist working across the South West delivering art workshops and creative sessions. His own practice is inspired by naive and outsider art as well as his love for cubism and comic book illustration. Not one to be tied down, he enjoys producing work in a number of different mediums - from large festive floats, lanterns and sculpture to printmaking, wood carving and ink drawing.
Madderdoit?
Madderdoit? Is a street artist, who grew up in Newquay and now lives in Laois, Ireland. Madderdoit? is a self taught street artist, known for his use of bright and bold colours mixed with monochrome imagery.
His work has gained international recognition, having been sold in over 15 countries around the world. Despite this success, Madderdoit? remains dedicated to creating artwork that connects with his audience and reflects his personal values.
He is looking forward to returning to his childhood town, and have the opportunity create new artwork, with new ideas.
