We’re excited to share that we’ve been adding We’re excited to share that we’ve been adding new works to our store! We’ve recently sold several pieces by Hannah Rollings, and we’re thrilled to have a selection of her latest studies now available on our page. Discover her beautiful work—link in bio! Hannah Rollings, Where the Pines Meet the Sea, acrylic and vinyl on framer’s board, A3 2025 Encompassing both studio and plein-air painting, Hannah seeks to connect with her surroundings through an immersive painting experience, exploring an emotive response to colour and mark-making. “My practice focuses on picturing landscapes to imbue and reconsider our connection with nature. Reflecting and considering where I, as an artist, position myself and further notions of the figure in the landscape to address and reconsider broader issues within a changing world that would benefit from a rewilding to reverse some negative impacts. This latest series of works on paper with Small Works looks to reframe a personal archive relating to my grandmother’s family history as a tea planter in Sri Lanka. By framing painting as a form of participation, I attempt to be involved in the historical narrative rather than spectating or recording it. This series has seen me explore, through large-scale works on canvas and exhibited as part of a group show at the James Hockey Gallery, Farnham, the struggles this land has had to bear. The richness of the natural landscape is etched away by the figures presented and the Camellia Sinensis monoculture plantation. Complexities within these relationships are drawn upon to unpack and reexamine these black-and-white photographs and tender relationships for a hopeful future.”
We just want to express a huge thank you to everyo We just want to express a huge thank you to everyone who has submitted work to our open call.

Through abstracted forms, I look at how the internal and external interact with each other and question the blurry border between the two. As I attempt to make a space emerge from the encounter of abstract marks, I am reflecting on all the visible and invisible currents, energies and flows traversing and permeating us. I also see these organic forms as windows or portals to an interior and private realm which have the potential to spill out and merge with the surrounding empty space. I am interested in the idea of the truly personal, private and also what is unknown to us such as forgotten memories, transference of the past, the subconscious... and how the interaction between the perpetual shifting environment and ourselves can trigger change and a potential new configuration of elements.” Justine Formentelli spent her childhood living in the Caribbeans, the island of Reunion and Morocco. After 11 years in the United States, where she studied Illustration and worked as a production designer at Harper’s Bazaar, she traveled around the world for a year before settling back in Europe. She is now based in London with her husband and two sons. She recently graduated from City and Guilds of London Art School with an MA. She has participated in numerous exhibitions in the United States and Europe.

✨SOLD✨ It’s here! Beautiful new work by Hel ✨SOLD✨ It’s here! Beautiful new work by Helen Baines is now available in our shop. The natural world in all its complexity is at the heart of Helen’s practice. It is an intimacy with the landscape and a sense of embeddedness that she seeks to locate in her work. She is interested in how stories imbue landscape with meaning and significance, notions of transcendence; where we end and nature begins, and our own personal geography. Helen meditates on our place within the more-than-human world, exploring narratives from history, ecology and folklore and shaping them with her own embodied experience. Helen Baines, Fegla Fach, oil on board, 26 × 19 × 4 cm Helen recently completed three years on the Turps Correspondence Course. She graduated from Epsom School of Art with a BA (Hons) in Graphic Design and later went on to study printmaking at The Art Academy London.

We are thrilled to have a beautiful selection of We are thrilled to have a beautiful selection of recent works by Pat Naylor available in our shop. Take ` look (link in bio). “The human figure has always been central to my work. My figures inhabit a landscape that is deliberately ambiguous: a sense of peace or a threat? Inspired by stories of space travel and polar exploration I previously set my figures against a looming sky. Recently, since relocating to live near Epping Forest, my work has been invaded by the trees, the garden, the leaves, the many rich shades of green. The figures too have evolved, inspired by historical depictions of humanity from ancient Egypt to the 20th century. The figures are reclaimed and developed without reference to a specific time or place. The materials are part of this process. I use expressive brushwork and bright colours for both the figures and the setting, and choose not to hide all evidence of previous compositional choices; in this ghost world the figures appear corporeal but not entirely solid, they may be consumed by the natural world or disintegrating into the past but they remain alive and present. Painting as archeology. Pat Naylor “Joan Alleyn among the leaf rubbings” Acrylic & collage on paper, 29 x 24, 2025 Pat Naylor is a UK artist based in Essex. She was awarded a BA in Fine Art from Preston and an MA in Illustration from the RCA (1982). She recently returned to making art after a long career in the music industry and several years studying medieval history, culminating in a PhD in 2008. She credits the support of art college friends for a return to painting and she participated alongside them in alumni exhibitions in Lancaster (2017) and central London (2018). Since then she has had a solo exhibition at Stone Space in Leytonstone and recently contributed to group shows in Sheffield, Matlock and the Small Works curated England is a Forest in Colchester.
We are very happy to introduce you to the amazing We are very happy to introduce you to the amazing Sarah Praill. Sarah Praill explores ways of embedding ‘presence’ within a surface through drawing, painting, print making and small sculptural objects. It is an archaeology of feeling and locating. A mark feels like a letter in the landscape of encoded things. She recently became a grandmother which has informed her recent work. She has been exploring painting with oil on different grounds. Adding and taking away to build a surface with thin and thick layers of oil paint. Impulse, touch, gesture, colour and mark. A holding space for buried things. It’s an excavation of sorts. You can find three of her Owl paintings in our store (link in bio). This series is made from leftover paint at the end of each day. Sarah Praill, Angsty Titanium Moth Owl, Oil on board, 14x19cm, 2025 Sarah Praill grew up in the Midlands and gained her BA in design and illustration at the Bezalel Academy of Art and Design. She studied Medieval History at Durham University and completed her Masters in Fine Art at The University of the Arts, London in 2011. She drew for many years in the British Museum with The Royal Drawing School and loves ancient markers across time of birth, life and death. She is drawn to chalky off white grounds, inscriptions, Greek funerary pots, ancient goddess figures, pink walls and the incisions on neolithic pots. She joined HAUSPRINT Print Studio in Stockwell in 2017 and completed three years on the Turps Correspondence Course. She will join the Turps Off Site Programme in September. She was awarded an a-n Artist Bursary to study fresco techniques in Sardinia. Her print works were selected for last years Woolwich Contemporary Print Fair.

Sarah is going to show her work at the Split 3 opens 20th June. @split.exhibition at Candid Arts Trust, Islington She is joining the Turps Offsite Programme in September.
We are very lucky to have a few pieces by Martin C We are very lucky to have a few pieces by Martin Clarkson available in our store. Martin Clarkson, (1988) is a British artist living and working in Nottinghamshire, England. Clarkson studied fine art painting at Loughborough University. He has worked over last decade on various creative ventures; working as painting technician at Loughborough University, he studied at the Santa Catalina Art School in South Spain, curated and shown work in various exhibitions around the Nottingham art scene as well as hosting various talks and educational workshops as accompaniment to exhibits or as a visiting artist to schools or colleges. From 2024 to present, Clarkson has shifted his approach from working primarily within a studio context, to painting En Plein Air, focusing first hand on the natural worlds of the British archipelago. After this shift in his practice, Clarkson was invited to show his ‘ Ancient Oaks of Sherwood ‘ series as a guest artist with The‘ Obejvak Project Space in central Prague. More recently in the UK, he has been interviewed for The Ancient Tree Forum, as accompaniment to a commission made by Sherwood Forest NNR, and has since continued to participate in various group shows with focus on the ‘Ancient Oaks of Sherwood’ series. Clarkson has worked in various private collections, including Australia, China, Europe and the UK. Martin Clarkson, Ancient Oaks of Sherwood: No. 45, oil on panel, 30x20x3cm, 2022, Reminder - Martin is taking part in @springfling . 💫24th - 26th of May Bank Holiday 💫 PV 6-8pm, Friday 23rd Studios Open late until 8pm Sat - Sun. Don’t miss the chance to meet him and see his amazing paintings ! Martins work is made ’En Plein Air’, considering an economy of mark whilst deploying the paint sculpturally to best describe the tree’s architecture, how its weight sits and shifts through time. Through experiential learning, moving through and surveying this environment I examine the vital features which are evident in our ancient wood; gnarled burrs, fresh epicormic shoots, red rot heartwood, corpse green lichens, moist mosses and fruiting fungi. Each painting investigates a tree as a living landscape in its own right.

We are delighted to share the upcoming solo exhibi We are delighted to share the upcoming solo exhibition, “Hissing in Soft Red,” by SMALL WORKS artist, curator (and co-director) Sylwia Narbutt at Outhouse Gallery this coming May. Hissing in soft red is an exhibition of recent works by Sylwia Narbutt. The show’s theme lingers around the ideas of wild, tamed and uncanny, taking on nature’s contradictions and transformations – trees are getting dressed, pets are dreamy, the fox is running away with a ribbon. We have this need to manicure every inch of grass, to own it, to overpower it. We are scared of what is hidden, but also tempted by things we cannot comprehend. The trees Narbutt chose to paint resemble human qualities: you know the feeling when someone is looking at you, or standing close by? This happens to us in the woods, trees staring or mocking our moves behind our backs. Narbutt chose to alter her colour palette, following the aesthetics of solarisation to indicate the heightened state of awareness as a way to respond to the issues she is struggling with and wanting to communicate – climate change, wars, fear and a sense of helplessness. Narbutt is inviting the viewer into the softness of large paintings which take over the small gallery space. The closeness of the works brings back her memories of walking in a clearing in Polish woods as a child, velvety and soft moss attached to the bark of the trees.There is also a distinct main character present in the works, inspired by magnificent Major Oak from Sherwood Forest. “Hissing in soft red” Acrylic on linen, 183 x 183 cm, 2025 and two details.

We are thrilled to have work by Min Angel availabl We are thrilled to have work by Min Angel available in our store. “Florence” Mixed media on gesso board, 30.5 x 25.5 x 2 cm, 2025 (and detail on the third slide) Min Angel’s multidisciplinary practice is concerned with touch and a love of materials. Carlo Levi’s titular phrase ’The future has an ancient heart’ is an important lodestar for her as she works across figuration and abstraction. Through ambiguous relationships between form and no form she considers the warp and weft of life, questioning where one thing stops and another begins and the nature of exchange between material objects and the physical, visual encounter. Her practice is informed by the experiential, by intuition and imagination and her study of the ancient arts of Zen mediation and Qigong. Min Angel is currently working on a curatorial project for the artist platform, BLINK that she co-founded with two other artists. They are putting together their 8th show and 7th iteration of Room Share which takes place at Safehouse , 139 Copeland Road, Peckham, London SE15 3SN. Angel’s exhibition, Felt, is themed around touch and will include paintings, textiles and sculpture. Show previews Friday 25th 6-9pm and is open the weekend of 26 and 7th April 12-6pm. Together with Lucy Soni, Angel is curating the Hall part of the “The Incidentals” exhibition at the Bell House for Dulwich Artist’s Open House this year. The exhibition will be open on 10/11 & 17/18 May, 11am - 6pm, with PV on tFriday 9 May 6-8pm. Recently Angel has got through to top 25% of just under 13K entries to the Jackson Painting Prize and is on their extended long list and has been shortlisted for the RA Summer Exhibition. In June she will be showing new work for the travelling postcard projects show, rose is a rose is a rose curated by Belinda Worsley at Finch Cafe.

We are delighted to have beautiful work by Sarah T We are delighted to have beautiful work by Sarah Tew available in our store. Sarah’s process and intricacy of painting are a constant inspiration. Sarah Tew (b. 1987) was brought up in the Cumbrian Lake District, Northwest England. She now lives and works in London since graduating from Slade School of Fine Art, MFA Fine Art in 2019. Her practice incorporates painting, installation, and site-responsive work. With interests that lie within the physical interactions of materials and their inheritance of cultural and historical contexts in relation to landscape. She questions the language and values of visual imagery in relation to the physical realm. The work looks out to a broader questioning of the fragilities and endurances of nature. Landscape is a term which she continues to unpick. Walking in the footsteps of artists before her as a research tool; the idea, experience and history of site/sight is unearthed. Beautiful work by Sarah Tew available in shop. Link in profile.

We have some great news. Our founder Monica Perez We have some great news. Our founder Monica Perez Vega is having a solo exhibition which is opening next week. FLUX is described as the action or process of flowing out. It also refers to continuous change. The title speaks to the movement of water across paper as well as to the ever-shifting nature of all things. This exhibition emerged out of Monica Perez Vega’s exploration into a more sustainable practice. With Arts Council funding, Monica visited trees of significance across the UK, not only as inspiration for her work but to also collect foraged material to create her own natural inks and pigments. This was done in an effort to challenge environmental issues in contemporary art, as well as to physically incorporate the landscape into the works themselves; embracing the alchemy and impermanence of natural media. Monica’s work is rooted in nature, exploring themes of uncertainty and adaptation. Born in California, her memories of home are shaped by a shifting landscape, and experiences of continually starting over have led to a practice which investigates cycles of change. Release is integral to Monica’s process, mirroring nature’s own rhythms of growth and dissolution. She is interested in the tension between renewal and collapse, navigating disruption as a method and metaphor. Flux is a reflection of this and of nature’s transience; it is both an acceptance of impermanence and a search for hope amid uncertainty. Show runs until 28 April. Please contact gallery for opening hours. Monica has an MFA in painting from the Slade School of Art and a BFA from the California College of the Arts. She completed the Turps Correspondence Course 21-22 and received a DYCP grant for her project, ‘greening my practice’ in 2023. She recently exhibited in the Exeter Contemporary 2024. She is currently working on a commission for the NCCU Re-design with @cuhartsnhs at Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridge. 🌿 Monica Perez Vega, The Willows, 2020, acrylic, spray paint and oil on canvas, 30x40cm New work available in our store (link in bio) Monica’s portrait by @tegenkimbley #artexhibition #artcuration #contemporaryart #painting #londonartevents

Reflecting and considering where I, as an artist, position myself and further notions of the figure in the landscape to address and reconsider broader issues within a changing world that would benefit from a rewilding to reverse some negative impacts.
