OUR MAIN MAN

We found Joe after months of searching the internet world, looking, stalking, pondering. We were looking for something that said Sailors Grave.....and he looked like he spoke our language! We invited him to come and stay with us for a while, we shared beer, our love of whales and a deeper understanding of what Sailors Grave is, but most importantly what it looked like!

Kathleen Neeley is an artist specializing in relief printmaking and illustration. She received a B.F.A. and M.A. from the University of Oklahoma. Her work is influenced by nature, fiction, music, medieval and ancient art, myths, ukiyo-e, folk art, and the decorative arts. It interprets personal and some less personal subjects—our ongoing climate crisis, for one—as characters in the myths and rituals of a fictional culture.

Born and raised in Yorkshire, Alexis Snell later moved t0 Cardiff, where she completed a degree in printmaking in 2003. She went on to exhibit in and around Wales and Leeds and has had two art residencies, Alexis works in Lino, sometimes adding watercolour or gouache to complete the print. For inspiration, she looks to old matchbox covers, record sleeves, tea boxes, postcards, explorers, the circus and films. She has since moved back to Yorkshire, where she works from her studio.
