Teesdale Felt and Art by Zara Louise: Power and Serenity

30 Nov 2022 - 23 Dec 2022

Artists Claire Priestley and Zara-Louise Dickinson invite you to view their 2022 exhibition inspired by local landscapes and the natural world.

Claire Priestley is a member of the N.E Artists Network and many of her vibrant wet felted landscapes are inspired by the beautiful scenery of Teesdale. Each picture is created using fine merino wool and is a celebration of the ever-changing seasonal colours. Claire lives and works in the Dale and runs felting workshops locally.

Zara-Louise Dickinson draws on her love of the natural world as inspiration for her artwork which is created using textiles, felt and stitch, acrylics, watercolours and pastels. Working from her home studio near the historic market town of Thirsk, she chooses bright colours and dramatic skies to evoke emotion and engage the viewer.
