The new ‘Linear’ zine has landed, and even if we do say so ourselves, it’s an absolute cracker.

A carefully curated and beautifully eclectic mix of art and photography from 20 Dartmoor artists exploring how human connection and communication have left their marks on the Dartmoor landscape.

In a strictly limited print run of 100, we have only a small number remaining for online sales.

Follow the link in our bio to find out more and get hold of your own copy.

Previous zines also available and we are offering a 10% bundle discount on orders of 3 or more items.

A very warm welcome to Becca Thorne @beccathornear

A very warm welcome to Becca Thorne @beccathorneart who is the latest artist to be featured on our website.

Becca is now based in Ireland, but grew up in rural Devon and Dartmoor continues to inspire her work.

“When I paint, I almost feel as if I am carving out the hills, rocks, trees and ridges, and my hope is that, at least in some of my paintings, there is a tactile, almost sculptural quality. A sense of distance, light and shadow; of a landscape ground out by time.”

The piece shown here is titled “Illuminated”.

Follow the link in the bio to see more of Becca’s work and read about how Dartmoor has played its part in her development as an artist.

The next artist we feature from our imminent exhibition at @poltimore_house is @littleghostphotographydartmoor

Claire-Shauna Saunders lives in a graveyard on Dartmoor which is where Little Ghost Photography began.
Claire enjoys following Dartmoor through the changes of the seasons and especially loves to rise early in the darkness and venture to a viewpoint and capture the world waking, as the sun rises and the mists sweep in the valleys, while birdsong fills the skies.

Details of our exhibition are in our bio. Its this Saturday and Sunday, features 19 artists all focussed on #Dartmoor and is absolutely free.

Next up in our stroll through exhibitors at @poltimore_house on the 27th and 28th of August is @jennynaturewriter

Jenny has been taking photographs since she was a child, including one infamous occasion, when 3 rolls film on a week-long holiday resulted in 108 photos exclusively of pigeons. She still enjoys taking photos of birds, and has worked as an event photographer for various charities; but now prefers to focus on macro and underwater photography.

Details of the exhibition are in our bio.

Next up amongst our exhibitors is @mariafloydart

Working en plein air and at her Dartmoor studio, she makes drawings and paintings that respond directly to the landscape, capturing the raw, high energy beauty of coast and moorland through the instinctive placement of abstract shapes and expressive marks. Her work is for collectors who appreciate the spectacular beauty of the far west in all seasons and all weathers, from the soft lull of springtime to the violent sweep of winter skies, beating down upon the bleak and beautiful Atlantic ocean.

The exhibition is on the 27th and 28th of this month at @poltimore_house. Full details on the link in our bio.

@tomdauben is next up amongst our featured artists who will be exhibiting at @poltimore_house on the 27th and 28th of August.

Tom's work, unusual amongst photographers, is entirely unedited. He has recently rediscovered the joys of looking more closely at the landscape, noticing the details within the wider view which are all too easy to overlook.

See much more of Tom's beautiful photography at our exhibition - details within our bio.

The second artist we feature from our forthcoming exhibition on the 27th and 28th of August at @poltimore_house is @mandi.street. Exhibition details are in our bio

In her own words..
‘While I trained as a painter, and work in a range of 2D media, for the last 6 years printmaking has also been a preferred medium, specifically linoprinting. For me, mark-making and texture in relief printing does the work of the paintbrush, giving work its own life, direction and force. My approach to printmaking is quite loose and I enjoy going where the materials take me. "

Over the next few weeks I will be featuring the artists that are participating in our Summer Exhibition at @poltimore_house on the 27th and 28th of August. Full details via the link in our bio.

This beautiful work, titled "Devon Fields" is by @rachaelannab. Rachael creates mixed media paintings where the materials used and the resulting image become one environment where the viewer can meditate and imagine their own story
