Three more artists, 16 days to go!

Only 16 days to go until the Christmas Extravaganza! This unique exhibition of jewellery, art and design will combine the attractiveness and ambiance of a gallery space with the opportunity to meet and buy direct from the makers and artists. It's only on for two days (Sat 28th and Sun 29th Nov) so come along and get involved! This is your chance to meet some of Scotland's top young (and some not so young!) designers and artists, many of them local and all keen to answer your questions and show you their work. To tempt you even more here's three more artists who will be exhibiting and selling their creations.

Michael Kay

Michael Kay graduated from Edinburgh College of Art in 1970 specialising in Silversmithing and Jewellery Design. He began teaching in 1971 as a way of combining a general interest in Art and Design with an opportunity to teach his specialism, as well as providing a regular income. Michael became Principal Teacher of Art & Design at Monifieth High School in 1993 and since retiring in 2008 has been active in designing and making. His creations range from small scale jewellery to larger scale silversmithing using silver, gold and precious or semi-precious stones. "All the work I do aims to exploit the natural properties of the materials I use."

Gill Ross

Gill Ross recently graduated from Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art and Design and was awarded a Goldsmiths Company Precious Metal Bursary. A practicing jeweller and illustrator, Gill is inspired by the character of our skewiff and weather battered skylines in Scottish towns and cities. Using observational drawing these qualities are captured in jewellery to celebrate the unique culture we all share.

Joanne Campbell - Orchid and Porcelain Bird

Joanne graduated in 2001 with a first class honours degree in Illustration and Printmaking from Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art and Design. She currently teaches Art part-time at the High School of Dundee and exhibits artwork both locally and nationally. The inspiration for her work comes from her surroundings and she enjoys visiting and interpreting new and different environments, recording these scenes using photography and quick sketches in a variety of media, which are later developed into final artworks. Joanne’s work is predominantly produced using the medium of screen-printing using strong colours, layers of imagery and experimentation with collage and the opacity of inks to create fusions of colour, texture and pattern.
