All <strong>the</strong> artists in this year’s <strong>Open</strong> <strong>Studios</strong> event are<br />

spaces throughout <strong>the</strong> beautiful Tamar <strong>Valley</strong>. You can<br />

buy art direct from <strong>the</strong> artist and find out more about how<br />

Foreword<br />

In AD997, according <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, raiding Vikings travelled<br />

up <strong>the</strong> Tamar and Tavy rivers as far as Lydford, burning Ordwulf’s monastery<br />

at Tavis<strong>to</strong>ck on <strong>the</strong> way.<br />

Contemplating a river, it is usual <strong>to</strong> think of a course from source <strong>to</strong> sea: a<br />

bubbling forth from an obscure spring, a wandering channel finally opening<br />

in<strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> sea. My daughter’s school project had her scrambling along rocky<br />

escarpments from <strong>the</strong> remote Cranmere Pool on Dartmoor <strong>to</strong> a walk along<br />

<strong>the</strong> River Dart, finally <strong>to</strong> board a boat which <strong>to</strong>ok her out <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> Castle at<br />

Dartmouth. Yet discovery, exploration (or conquest), is more likely <strong>to</strong> come<br />

from <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r direction, from seaward.<br />

Thus it is seafarers, at <strong>the</strong> whim of <strong>the</strong> winds and ocean currents, who come<br />

upon a river’s mouth whilst searching for a sheltered landfall, navigating<br />

inland from ports <strong>to</strong> settlements and <strong>the</strong> meandering upper reaches. It is<br />

from <strong>the</strong> his<strong>to</strong>ry of <strong>the</strong> Tamar, as first and foremost a river of explorers, that<br />

we begin a trajec<strong>to</strong>ry that takes us from Plymouth Sound, with its<br />

connections <strong>to</strong> naval power, and draws us fur<strong>the</strong>r in<strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> course of <strong>the</strong><br />

Tamar, simultaneously flowing and fixed as a border between Devon and<br />

Cornwall, almost <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> north coast.<br />

The artists of <strong>Drawn</strong> <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> are exhibiting a remarkable range of<br />

contemporary art practices, from painting, printmaking and ceramics <strong>to</strong><br />

pho<strong>to</strong>graphy, textiles and jewellery in this annual <strong>Open</strong> <strong>Studios</strong> event.<br />

What binds <strong>the</strong>m <strong>to</strong>ge<strong>the</strong>r in a common approach is <strong>the</strong> practice of drawing.<br />

This is <strong>to</strong> think about drawing in its widest sense, whe<strong>the</strong>r actual markmaking,<br />

<strong>the</strong> manipulation of materials, or <strong>the</strong> traces of light recorded in a<br />

pho<strong>to</strong>graph. Drawing is a process of exploration, like seafaring, where <strong>the</strong><br />

artist navigates a course of action between competing forces, by deciding<br />

when <strong>to</strong> yield or <strong>to</strong> reassert control, steering <strong>the</strong> drawing in<strong>to</strong> a flow that is<br />

most conducive <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> emerging artwork.<br />

It is this idea of flow that is so favourably served by <strong>the</strong> Tamar and which has<br />

been assimilated by <strong>the</strong>se artists. It is in <strong>the</strong> same spirit of exploration that<br />

<strong>Drawn</strong> <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> invites you <strong>to</strong> discover <strong>the</strong> diversity of <strong>the</strong> work shown<br />

in <strong>Open</strong> <strong>Studios</strong> <strong>2016</strong> and <strong>to</strong> find out for yourselves what makes this such a<br />

rich place for artists and makers.<br />

<strong>Drawn</strong> <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> – 13 Years<br />

Tavis<strong>to</strong>ck Annual Exhibition<br />

Tavis<strong>to</strong>ck Town Hall<br />

27th <strong>to</strong> 31st July <strong>2016</strong><br />

It is thirteen years since <strong>the</strong> <strong>Drawn</strong> <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> group first got <strong>to</strong>ge<strong>the</strong>r<br />

as a way for artists local <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> River Tamar <strong>to</strong> keep in <strong>to</strong>uch and exhibit <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

work. Much of <strong>the</strong>ir inspiration comes from <strong>the</strong>ir passion for <strong>the</strong> Tamar <strong>Valley</strong><br />

Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. There are now over 130 members<br />

covering a host of creative skills, and a wide geographical area, and <strong>the</strong><br />

group’s continued success is something <strong>to</strong> celebrate.<br />

The <strong>Drawn</strong> <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> annual Summer Exhibition in Tavis<strong>to</strong>ck Town Hall<br />

is a fantastic opportunity <strong>to</strong> see a wide selection of <strong>the</strong>se artists’ work under<br />

one roof, and is a great way <strong>to</strong> get a flavour of more <strong>to</strong> come as this event is<br />

followed by <strong>Open</strong> <strong>Studios</strong> from 27th August <strong>to</strong> 4th September <strong>2016</strong>.<br />

Paintings, prints, ceramics, textiles, jewellery, pho<strong>to</strong>graphy, glass, wood and<br />

sculpture all form part of this eclectic exhibition. All work is for sale and will<br />

include cards and unmounted work. The artists range from those with a great<br />

deal of experience <strong>to</strong> those who are just starting out. Prices reflect this mix<br />

and <strong>the</strong>re will be plenty of bargains.<br />

The private view, on Tuesday 26th July from 6.30 pm <strong>to</strong> 8.30 pm, is a<br />

wonderfully vibrant occasion which offers <strong>the</strong> opportunity <strong>to</strong> meet many of<br />

<strong>the</strong> artists and <strong>to</strong> see <strong>the</strong>ir work displayed. For <strong>the</strong> artists <strong>the</strong>mselves it is an<br />

important event that brings <strong>the</strong>m <strong>to</strong>ge<strong>the</strong>r both socially and professionally. It<br />

is both exciting and daunting for <strong>the</strong>m <strong>to</strong> see <strong>the</strong>ir work in a public show.<br />

Drawing, painting, mixed media, printing and pho<strong>to</strong>graphy<br />

My inspiration comes from working on location in <strong>the</strong> Tamar <strong>Valley</strong>, moors<br />

Printmaking, artist books, cards<br />

The concept of fragments is central <strong>to</strong> my practice. I am interested in<br />

capturing <strong>the</strong> intimate, momentary experiences of walking on <strong>the</strong> South West<br />

coastal footpath and Dartmoor through printmaking and drawing. These are<br />

often presented as artist books.<br />

11.00 am <strong>to</strong> 4.00 pm daily.<br />

Late night Friday 2nd September 6.00 pm <strong>to</strong> 9.00 pm<br />

From City Centre follow signs for Mount Wise. At Cumberland Gardens,<br />

Devonport, turn left off mini-roundabout, first right at Co-op, left fork in<strong>to</strong> Ker<br />

Street. No 69 is midway on left. Devonport Guildhall straight ahead. Free<br />

on-road parking. Disabled access. All on ground floor, with lava<strong>to</strong>ry, no steps.<br />

Textile Artist Tessa Jane won 1st Prize Best Oxford<br />

International Air Fair Artist Award <strong>2016</strong> -“A unanimous<br />

decision <strong>to</strong> reward an exceptional artist with hugely<br />

diverse talents”, Joelle Dinnage, Global Art Agency.<br />

When asked by Bill Heine, BBC Radio Oxford what<br />

inspires her and her passion for art Tessa replied that<br />

it was not enough <strong>to</strong> create beautiful things that <strong>the</strong>re<br />

should be a meaning and purpose <strong>to</strong> her work. Showing<br />

her hand made shoes called “Walking through worlds”,<br />

hand printed from lea<strong>the</strong>r left overs Tessa explained<br />

that <strong>the</strong>y represent where we tread, <strong>the</strong> path we take<br />

and that we should go lightly through life and asks that<br />

people care about <strong>the</strong> planet and one ano<strong>the</strong>r.<br />

“That chair speaks volumes and says more about <strong>the</strong><br />

artist, her work than any o<strong>the</strong>r painting here”, Richard<br />

Knight, Ex Chair of Old Masters at Christies, serving<br />

twice as joint Chair for Executive Committee of <strong>the</strong><br />

European Fine Art Foundation (TEFAF) . The event was<br />

year, <strong>the</strong>se are usually based on four days per venue<br />

across <strong>the</strong> seasons.<br />

This year once again we have been kindly asked back<br />

<strong>to</strong> two venues that have inspired many artists over <strong>the</strong><br />

last few years; The Garden House at Buckland<br />

Monochorum, Devon and Pentillie Castle near<br />

Hatt, Cornwall.<br />

These two stunning locations have supported <strong>Drawn</strong><br />

<strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> while allowing our artists <strong>to</strong> soak up<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir breath-taking views, each location providing an<br />

abundance of inspiration and variation, from beautiful<br />

flowering meadows <strong>to</strong> wea<strong>the</strong>red outbuildings and <strong>the</strong><br />

all-important river Tamar.<br />

Their support enables our artists <strong>the</strong> precious time <strong>to</strong><br />

sketch, paint, pho<strong>to</strong>graph and be generally inspired by<br />

<strong>the</strong> fabulous landscape, as well as providing <strong>the</strong><br />

opportunity for our members <strong>to</strong> meet up and share<br />

<strong>the</strong> experience.<br />

As artists, we spend many hours working in solitude; <strong>the</strong><br />

community of <strong>Drawn</strong> <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> is such an important<br />

part of our membership, enabling peers <strong>to</strong> share <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

work, artistic experiences as well as <strong>the</strong> shared<br />

inspiration from beautiful<br />

surroundings<br />

during <strong>the</strong> much<br />

appreciated<br />

drawing days.<br />
