Roman Klonek - Untamed Supporters
We have been representing printmaker Roman Klonick in the UK for a number of years and are delighted to be bringing a solo show of 70 beautifully bold and colourful woodcuts, spanning more than a decade, to Atelier Beside the Sea this Spring.
Born in Kattowitz, Poland, in the 90s Roman moved to Düsseldorf, Germany, where he studied Graphic Arts and discovered a passion for woodcuts. More than 20 years on, he still shares a studio with friends in the German city, from where he creates illustrations and prints which are instantly recognisable and distinctively his own. They typically feature a wide range of whimsical creatures...

Susan Ashworth is a master of light.
Susan Ashworth is a master of light. Her oil paintings deftly capture its play across every surface, be it skittering across a polished heirloom jug, tracing the shoulder of a milk bottle, or absorbed by matt Portland stone.
And then there are the shadows. Raking the table, layered by leaves, or half-filtered through amber glass, they describe her subject’s opacity and how heavily they rest on her table-top landscapes. Often sparsely populated, with loosely explored edges and just the ghost of a patterned tablecloth, her still lifes cast everyday objects as their central focus.
In her painting, Susan says, she is seeking to “catch things at the moment of appearance” and to “create an emotional pull to the...

Elaine Bolt uses objects to tell stories.
“Objects can tell stories… here are some of mine.”
As a maker of sculptural installations, mixed media wall pieces and porcelain vessels, Elaine Bolt is endlessly inspired by the Sussex coast and landscape.
She frequently returns to her Brighton studio with pockets full of obscure items scavenged from the strand line, their original purpose lost to the pounding of the sea. Walks in the woods turn up acorn cups, lichen and gnarled twigs. All become objects of contemplation on her workbench, and some find their way into her compositions. They make her look at the details, she explains, to ‘look closely at the edges’, seeking to impart their qualities into the surface of the clay, or the form of the pieces.
