Penysarn
Veronica Knowles is a very private artist, her subject matter is almost entirely her own garden, family, friends and domestic animals. Although by choice she exhibits rarely, she has works in both private and public collections.

I create collage and assemblage art as little collections or scenes composed in shadow boxes.
I like to re-imagine a new meaning for ordinary and extraordinary objects.
My background is in Illustration, and I collect unlikely objects to create shrine like pictures/collages which have their own story or poem.
I received my BA in Art & Design from Newport College of Art, Wales.
I now have a studio on Anglesey.
I am a trained illustrator and I worked for Bangor University as an
Illustrator and book designer, before leaving to go and work in India for several years.

Dwyran
I design and make unusual gemstone jewellery. Inspired by the Island’s scenic landscape and mythical legends. All the silver settings are made from raw silver in my studio and all the gemstones are hand cut in my studio.
This year I am donating profits of all jewellery sales to help Refugees from Ukraine.
Open throughout the year by prior appointment.

Millbank
My work is mainly oil on canvas. I enjoy painting
all subjects, especially relating to North Wales. As a prizewinning aviation artist, I attempt to tell the story of Welsh aviation history.
Open all year around by prior appointment.

Free hand drawings, ink on paper and canvas. I do personalized gifts, themed designs, logo, symbols, all measures canvas, amazing Wales dragons, and much more!

Longford Road
Iwan Lewis, recent graduate from Royal College of Art. My vernacular is challenged by a need to question its origin, from understanding painting through Speilberg’s ET to conversing with Henri Rousseau through a fish tank.

Brynsiencyn
Whilst continuing with my passion for print, in the summer I enjoy creating large canvasses with oils. Both larger works and prints will be on show during Open Studios, as well as recent collage portraits.

2-6 Market Street
I am constantly inspired by the natural environment finding the beauty in the simplest of forms to the most dramatic of landscapes. I love experimenting with various mediums to express texture, colour, mood and atmosphere be it in paintings, photography or craft pieces to interpret my surrounding environment.

Penmon
My work consists of Sea and Landscapes local to Anglesey and North Wales. I work in watercolour and oils.
Open throughout the year by prior appointment.

Llanedwen
My work has progressed in a circular fashion, I have rediscovered my painting roots and I am delivering fiqurative narrative paintings again. Of course this new work is informed by all my previous creative experience and I am enjoying producing work in this way. In these paintings daily life wanders into familiar landscapes and settings.

High Street
Painting in oils of the Island of Anglesey, showing the great variety of texture and weather in the landscape.

63 Maeshyfryd Road
Welsh history/landscape influence my art, and inspired my popular farming characters, Gwyn & Gwawr. A firm belief in the power of comedy to lift the spirit, is reflected in many artworks, often incorporating a subtle humour.
Open throughout the year by prior appointment.

I believe in drawing and painting from ‘on the spot’ sketchbook studies without the use of photographic aids. Committing a subject to paper or canvas with some sense of atmosphere, movement, and changing light, in my experience can only be achieved by being present at the scene taking time to absorb and enjoy the subject.
