Artists

Sally Harbour  

I usually paint in a verity of mediums including oil, acrylic and water colour however when VIDA an online designer shop contacted me with an opportunity to design unique scarves using digital photographs of my original paintings. I decided to work with them to add another dimension to my artwork. This was not something I had ever considered before and designing online is an exciting new journey for me.

The first step of the process was to take a high resolution digital photograph of the original painting and then upload it to the VIDA website. I was then able to select the part of the image I wanted to use, make it larger or smaller and choose the type of material I wanted the scarf to be printed on . When happy with the design I saved it and gave it a relevant name. The collection on show at this exhibition are mostly taken from by mixed media paintings inspired by the sky and all the beautiful colours that can be seen in it.

The items on show at the Grain Store Studios during the Endangered Species exhibition are an example of my collection that is also available online. I would also like to offer you the opportunity to see and feel the quality of the scarves personally and to purchase them direct from the artist/exhibition.
Each designer scarf is uniquely designed and custom-printed.

Textiles and Ceramics

Textiles and Ceramics are the areas of art I love best. Living and working in Chartham near Canterbury, my sculptural vases bowls and other ceramics are hand built from Stoneware, Earthenware and Porcelain.  My principal inspiration comes from my love of art nouveau and art deco.  I try to reflect their energy and style whilst I seek to express in my designs the forms and shapes present in the natural world.

 

I studied Art and Design at Stockwell College of Education, Bromley 1971-3.  Creating pieces of art from Textiles has always been a love and one which I have pursued since primary school into college and to date.  Working with natural materials, particularly silks and glass beads, creating designs from natural organic forms.

 

I started concentrating on ceramics in 2005; studying under a local potter, Tony Benham at his then studio in Wingham, Kent.  Tony had been potting and teaching for over 50 years and has been a mentor, encouraging my enthusiasm for this medium.
