Art @ 3 St Peter’s.

Sarah Wheatley has always been drawn to structures; whether that’s buildings, streets or even swimming pools. She combines her love of geometric shapes with a passion for impressionist and pop-art styles. Wheatley’s cityscapes are inspired by travels, both her own and those of close family and friends. Sarah is represented by emerging artist agency Little Van Gogh and regularly exhibits her work in London, Cambridge and closer to home in St Neots.

Sally Pennycate is an artist inspired by the beauty and forms of nature, working from the countryside around her including the Castle Ashby Estate. As a landscape painter Sally distills the natural world into reflective, meditative pieces that seem haunting and immersive.

Over the last few years Sally developed a way to incorporate elements of the landscape within the canvas. Loving the trees, grasses and leaves that create the landscape Sally takes these natural materials and breathes new life into them, capturing the structural and textural elements and drawing them out with paint and medium. It is this tactile, building up of texture and detail that brings the dead foliage back to life with a new beauty and purpose. These humble grasses and natural materials are dried and pressed before being immortalised within a hardening material so that they are embedded within the canvas in a layering process, built up with paint and metallic mica powders. Her art practice is environmentally conscious with water-based environmentally friendly materials as much as possible as she hopes to illustrate the beauty of the landscape and what we have to lose by destroying it.
