QUIET DEVOTION TO THE EVERYDAY
Jo Dewar
21- 27 October 2026

Open daily 10am – 5pm
(Last day Tuesday 27th 10am – 1pm)

Private View Friday 23rd October, All welcome! 

This exhibition is rooted to objects and vistas that surround us on a daily basis.  Inspired by a love of pattern and colour in treasured items and beautiful vistas that make a canvas for expressive mark making and pattern which are at the heart of Jo’s practice. The everyday is never ordinary, it is rich with colour, structure and quiet significance.

 Jo expresses her observations through paint, print and textiles and the exhibition brings together a collection of works inspired by the environments she knows and loves.

SHAPE SPEAKING
David Felix
14 - 20 October 2026

Open daily 10am – 5pm
(Last day Tuesday 29th 10am – 1pm)

This is David’s fifth one-man show at SPRING CHELTENHAM with work that continues to explore the relationship between text, shape, texture and colour.

As an inveterate re-user and recycler of materials ( he is also an avid gardener and committed compost maker ) David constructs many of these collage pieces by piecing corrugated cardboard together in a series of cross directional layers.

This provides a lightness and strength to the work and offers the possibility of creating Irregularly formed boards, as opposed to the traditional rectangle.

There’s a delightful freedom and flexibility here, together with the singular challenge of organising paper collage across and over an uneven format.

For example, the board is easily cut and objects can be set into the surface.

David also enjoys adding small attachments as projections, as extensions that emerge from the overall shapes, taking the work in a more three-dimensional, sculptural direction.

ENDPAPERS
Tricia Crowther
7 - 13 October 2026

Open daily 10am – 5pm
(Last day Tuesday 29th 10am – 1pm)

Late night opening, Friday 9th October 5-8pm. All Welcome!

Endpapers brings together a new collection of abstract collages by Tricia Crowther, constructed  from discarded vintage papers and antique books Tricia strips the materials of their original purpose to focus on shape, texture and colour.

Her process is driven by visual balance, tension and a direct response to the paper itself. Through tearing, cutting and layering, these aged fragments alongside hand painted elements, she builds structured, contemporary compositions.

The title Endpapers references the physical sheets that bind a book together. In this exhibition, Tricia takes what was once overlooked and re-imagines a new narrative. The resultant works are structurally complex yet emotionally resonant echoing the passage of time and the layering of human memory.

CLOUDS AND FIELDS
Peter Phipps
30 September- 6 October 2026

Open daily 10am – 5pm
(Last day Tuesday 29th 10am – 1pm)

‘Hi, I’m Peter, an artist based in the beautiful Cotswolds. I work mainly in oils and acrylics and I’m especially drawn to light, how it shifts through a landscape, warms ancient hills or softens the edges of a memory. A lot of my work has a nostalgic feel, inspired by the quiet charm of the countryside and those small familiar moments that stay with you.

I try to paint the kind of scenes that make you pause, maybe even feel something you can’t quite put into words, just that sense of time, place and calm.’

SANCTUARY
Jonathan Oakes
23- 29 September 2026

Open daily 10am – 5pm
(Last day Tuesday 29th 10am – 1pm)

An exhibition of truly original Contemporary artworks by Jonathan Oakes

‘I seek sanctuary in my artworks, creating them becomes a narrative of expression, a place to outpour my emotional experience of the environment. Therapeutic in understanding the imagination. Sanctuary, individual stories that relate to the underlying theme.’

Jonathan Oakes is an experienced artist who is passionate about the natural world, the majority of his artwork is deeply influenced by environmental concerns. His highly individual paintings are abstract by definition but have an illustrative quality about them. He utilises layers and mark making to add depth and narrative. In general his artworks are created using mixed media on canvas, paper or large abandoned photographs. He hopes to create a starting point for the viewer’s imagination as they contemplate the artwork.

UNDERGROUND
Louise Hocking, Gaye Watson & Dominic Momcilovic
16 - 22 September 2026
Open daily 10am - 5pm
(Final Tuesday 10am - 1pm)

We are three artists and friends with contrasting styles and complementary beliefs.

Between us, our work is challenging in its scale, bold and dynamic. It is poetic, atmospheric and dreamlike. It is subtly subversive, revealing and compelling.

We take our artistic practice seriously and have fun while doing it. As second career mature artists, we have a strong commitment to our work and to our evolving perspectives but aim to do this with a lightness and a sense of enjoyment.

Our shared inspiration includes freedom, individuality and self-expression. Reflected in our collective work, you will see a range of source inspiration. It may be places of beauty we have lived, places of beauty we live now, nature and changing seascape or our own bodies and self-identity.

SIMON HADLEY-ATTARD
10- 15 September 2026
Open daily 10am – 5pm
(Last day Tuesday 29th 10am – 1pm)

Simon Hadley Attard is a figurative painter, whose paintings identify with the landscape and visual surroundings of life in England. Subjects such as whippets and lurchers, the artist’s garden, portraits of friends and family, and the art historical canon all play major roles in his painting process. House flies, pot plants and spiders suggest deeper connections of disequilibrium, as the artist explores themes that evoke climate change and the transience of time. More recent work explores themes such as the crucifixion, employing impasto oil colour and pushing the boundaries of oil painting and the marks and textures it is capable of. 
Simon studied at Falmouth School of Art finishing in 2006 and holds an MA from the University of Arts, London.

Artist Statement
As a way of exploring the tension between celebration and mortality, pleasure and pain, this exhibition returns repeatedly to motifs associated with the studios, cafés, banquets and bohemian life of the artist: fruit, smoke, oysters, skulls, absinthe, and, in particular, the painter’s table — perhaps the most familiar piece of furniture in an artist’s studio.

The exhibition is also an exploration of the artist’s ‘myth’ and reflects the broader cultural tendency to romanticize the ‘lone genius’. Something I have always been fascinated with. 

These paintings exist somewhere between darkness and light, life and death, imagination and reality. I have worked from source material that directly references artists such as Picasso and Van Gogh, entering their worlds and reimagining their subjects in an attempt to create an alternative reality — something grittier, perhaps, and closer to the truth behind the myth of the lone genius.

Ultimately, the paintings are concerned with the strange space where beauty and decay coexist; where pleasure carries the shadow of mortality, and where the act of painting itself becomes a way of confronting both.

Private View 6 - 9pm on the 10th September. All Welcome!

FORME
Imogen Harris
8 - 14 July 2026

Every form, its own story.
A study of shape, texture, and the individuality of crafted pieces.

My work explores the individuality of form — how each vessel carries its own story through shape, texture, and intentional imperfection. I’m drawn to the quiet character of hand‑built pieces, celebrating the marks, curves, and organic lines that emerge through the making process. Forme is a study of how clay holds identity, memory, and movement.

Bio: 

Imogen is a deaf ceramic artist based in Cheltenham, creating hand‑built forms that celebrate texture, individuality, and the quiet beauty of imperfection. Alongside her studio practice, she teaches workshops and shares her creative process with an engaged community, blending craft, storytelling, and accessibility in everything she makes.

LIGHT AND SHADE
Andy Sylvester
24 - 30 June 2026

Andy Sylvester read painting at Wolverhampton Polytechnic 1984-87. Since graduating he has worked as a practicing artist. He has work in public and private collections in the UK, Europe, Canada and the USA. 

He builds his images over time in rich colourful strokes. His work uses photography as a source material, his own or images he finds on social media. 

The work in this exhibition explores his fascination with light and colour. From portraits and life studies to the intensity of club lighting and a nighttime world of DJs, drag queens, gogo boys and leathermen

Fragments II 

17.06.26 - 23.06.26

An exhibition of paintings by Esmeé Van Giap and mosaics by Catherine Van Giap. 

This exhibition brings together recent works by the two artists, presented side by side in a visual dialogue that highlights both contrast and harmony, while celebrating the expressive power of their materials.

Here, fragments refers not to something broken or incomplete, but to moments, forms, and material gestures that invite close attention, encouraging audiences to slow down and engage with the physical and conceptual qualities of the work.

Colour plays an integral role throughout the exhibition, expressed in different mediums - from deep rich oil paint in expressive marks to precise curves and blocks of iridescent and opaque glass. Both artists are placing colours together with consideration of the composition, in a way that is both careful and subtle, yet bold and experimental.

Ultimately, this exhibition presents two bodies of work created over the past year, bringing together paint and glass through the practices of contemporary artists who continue to push their work forward while reflecting on the inherent qualities of their materials.

Freshwater Mosaics
Catherine Van Giap

“Freshwater Mosaics is a contemporary practice centred on light and reflection, using evolving forms to shape how light is held, redirected, and experienced over time.”

The practice investigates how reflective materials shape perception as light shifts, fragments, and moves across a surface.

The work is informed by the mosaic traditions of Ravenna, Italy, particularly their understanding of light as an active presence within material, whilst remaining rooted in contemporary abstraction. Materials are selected for how they receive, hold, and redirect light. Coloured mirror glass, irridised glass, and gold are selected for their reflective behaviour rather than fixed symbolic roles.

Individual series function as focused chapters within this broader enquiry. Themes and motifs emerge, develop, and recede over time as part of the working process. In the current series, in Luce Aurea, the dove is used as an abstract expression within contemporary form, serving as one vehicle through which light, balance, and movement are explored. Other series have engaged different natural forms, including leaves, birds, and fish, each offering a distinct way of working with movement and reflection.

Across the practice, structure and irregularity are held in deliberate tension. Precision is balanced with material response, allowing surfaces to retain a sense of vitality and openness. Light and reflection remain the constant, shaping how the work is experienced over time and anchoring an evolving practice that remains materially grounded and visually direct.

Paintings by Esmeé Van Giap 

Esmeé Van Giap (b. 2001) is a painter who graduated from Camberwell College of Arts in 2023 with a BA in Painting. Working in oils and acrylic, their practice centres on figurative explorations of ethereal and divine feminine forms. Often conveying intimate dynamics and suggesting ambiguous narratives widely informed by spiritual and religious contexts.

The figures exist in a space where bold brushstrokes and aggressive movements are held in tension with delicate portrayals of hushed yet enticing beings. The paintings are created using a compositional approach in which the figures gradually emerge from the canvas through the layering of oil and acrylic paint. While working on the figurative forms and the surrounding spaces simultaneously, colour is used intentionally across the canvas to bind the figures to their landscape.

The repeated use of motifs and symbols are essential in attempting to discover new personal meaning and explore subliminal messages in painting. They also allow for the paintings to feed into one another, forming threads of ideas that can be examined many times until fulfilment.

SEA LONGING
Addy Gardner
3 - 16 June 2026

Opening Hours: 10.30 - 5.00 Daily
Closed Mon, June 8
Closing 1pm Tues, June 16,

Sea longing presents a series of semi-abstract mixed media paintings based on a small cove in Cornwall. The works explore the emotional weight of place and the way memory returns to it over time. The sea functions here not simply as a subject, but as a recurring point of orientation - a place continually revisited through recollection, longing, and sensation.

“My latest work is about longing, belonging, identity and familial attachment. The daily repetition of days away from something you long for.

I went to a beach with family on a beautiful four day trip to the sea. Three generations together for four days. I paid many visits to the little cove nearby. It seemed to hug me and it was like walking down into the arms of family. The large rocky outcrop being the mother (parent figure) and the sea being the child- always coming back and forth but never staying. The parent rock always longing.

When I returned I thought lots about that little beach, I thought of being alone on it in the early morning and I thought of being on it with my sister and between us, our five children. I thought of the joy of being there with our parents and our kids, some of which are getting to the age where they will leave home. I’ve been thinking lots about the cycle of love and warmth and then loss but also the constant returning.”

In the work of Addy Gardner, place is never fixed. It is layered, eroded, and reassembled through time, much like a shoreline shaped by repeated tides. These paintings are built through accumulation and removal: surfaces are worked, obscured, and reopened, allowing earlier gestures to remain visible beneath later ones. This process mirrors the way memories of place persist; not as clear images, but as overlapping impressions that shift with distance and age.

SEA
Jaci Hogan
27 May - 2 June 2026
Opening daily day 10am - 5pm 
(Final Tuesday 10am - 1pm)

Preview evening Friday 29th May 5-7pm. Everyone welcome!
Come and have a drink, peruse the artwork and have a chat. 

Jaci Hogan is a pastel artist who’s journey over the past three years has been devoted to exploring the dynamic beauty of seas and oceans. This passion is rooted in her childhood growing up in Australia, where early life spent swimming and watching the waves left a lasting imprint on her imagination. The rhythm and sounds of the ocean have become a part of her inner landscape, shaping her creative vision.

In this body of work, she seeks to capture the visual patterns of both waves and sea foam, by studying the tides and the interplay of water as it retreats and crashes onto the shore.  Her aim is to evoke a sense of motion, whether it be the crashing of waves or the pull of the tide. Her hope is that each piece invites viewers to reconnect with their own experiences of the coast, to be immersed in the presence of the sea.

THE SHAPE OF WATER, THE MEMORY OF LAND
Luba Arnold, Antonella Scarpa- Isles and Ewen Hyde
20 - 26 May 2026

Luba Arnold
Luba is a contemporary landscape artist, based in Gloucestershire, UK.

Her paintings are not intended to be literal representations of specific places, but rather an attempt to capture the essence of memory - a space imbued with its light and atmosphere - leaving room for personal interpretation and connection.

Drawing inspiration from the local landscapes she explores on long walks through the countryside, Luba finds equal inspiration in the sea. Regular visits to Cornwall have played a pivotal role in shaping many of her seascapes.

At the heart of Luba’s work is a deep focus on colour and texture. Acrylic, oils and charcoal are her chosen media, with pallet knife marks lending a tactile quality to the surface. Layer upon layer of paint adds depth, inviting the viewer to explore the rich nuances of each piece.

Her approach is blend of memory, sketches and photographs, with each stroke guided by energetic, intuitive process. The result is a work that feels spontaneous, yet deliberate -an expression of the moment captured in paint.

Antonella Scarpa- Isles
Water is an endless source of fascination for me , whether it is the sea, a lake or a river, I’m drawn to the way its surface is never still. It shifts from moment to moment, sometimes revealing its depth, sometimes reflecting the sky so completely that what lies beneath disappears. This constant movement, this duality of showing and hiding is what compels me to paint it.

In my work I try to capture the many facets of water: its luminosity, its turbulence, its quiet expanses and its sudden changes. I’m especially interested in the tension between its beauty and its danger. I feel a deep pull towards water, yet I also carry a fear of its depths and the unknown they hold.
The ambivalence, attraction and unease intertwined runs through my paintings.
Through colour, texture and shifting layers, I explore water as both a physical presence and an emotional landscape .
Each painting becomes a way of approaching something I can never fully grasp, a way of honouring the spell water casts on me while acknowledging the vulnerability it evokes.
My hope is that the viewers feel the same mixture of wonder and uncertainty, and sense the living, changing nature of the element that inspires me.

Ewen Hyde
Constantly evolving through experimentation, my work is predominantly constructed
using only salvaged materials and found objects – usually, although not exclusively,
scrap metal.
Often, the nature of the material itself provides the inspiration for the piece.
Each sculpture is then fabricated by hand, and given the random source of the
materials, this ensures each work is completely individual and unique.
While on the surface they may appear simply quirky or even humorous, there is often a
far more serious, deeper underlying message

Jane Foot
April 29 - 12 May 2026
10 - 5 pm (1pm on last day).
Open late Thursdays & Fridays until 7pm.

All welcome to drinks reception: Thurs April 30th, 5-8pm.

'My mind is continually taking in the landscape around me. I don’t record anything directly; I carry it with me. I’m often drawn to crumbling cottages and old industrial structures, and to how they sit within the contours of the land. These memories find their way intuitively into my mixed media compositions. My paintings aren't literal views, but responses to what lingers — fragments of structure, atmosphere and history.  In these fragments of structure and terrain, past and present converge, reminding us that every landscape carries the imprint of lives lived and collective memory’.

SIGNS OF HOPE

8 - 14 April 2026,
Open daily 10am - 5pm
(Final Tuesday 10am - 1pm)

Private View, Friday 10th April, 6.30-8pm, All Welcome!

“I’m delighted to be launching my new collection of paintings ’Signs of Hope’ at Spring Cheltenham Gallery in this April. My inspiration is always the emotions evoked by the natural landscape; it both makes me pause and want to breathe all that beauty in, and want to rush forward and experience it all at the same time. Studio explorations have taken me to some exciting new places. I’ve been looking afresh at my much beloved big, beautiful wide-open landscapes as well newly discovered smaller more intimate moments of beauty and hope, found in waterfalls, sunlight, and nature.

There's something about being able to see the horizon that brings me such a deep sense of peace. I’ve earned my place there, I’ve battled up the big hill, overcome myself and so many obstacles, and my reward is the incredible beauty I now see before me. It’s the calm, the immense joy I feel in the realisation that I’m a small part of something much bigger. That beauty gives me hope, it helps me look outside of myself and my immediate circumstances and believe there is more.”

Tricia Crowther
1 - 7 April 2026

Open daily 10am - 5pm
(Final Tuesday 10am - 1pm)

Ephemera : minor transient documents of everyday life. Halcyon colours that connect us to childhoods; 70s’ fonts and Victorian handwritten script - papers smoothed and stroked and aged by touching : physical, analogue and intimate.

Using vintage papers, old linen books and traditional oil paints, Tricia blends gestural markmaking and layered surfaces to create contemporary abstract pieces with richly visually tactile surfaces that sit within the British Modernist aesthetic.

The pieces explore memory, transformation and the quiet beauty of imperfection and noticing the often overlooked.

Jo Rose
25 - 31 March 2026
Private View on Friday 27th, 6–8pm. All Welcome

Contemporary British artist Jo Rose unveils Year of the Horse, a compelling new exhibition at Spring Cheltenham, the acclaimed artist‑run gallery in the Montpellier district. Bringing together a series of powerful mixed‑media works, the collection explores the horse as both a cultural symbol and a profoundly personal metaphor for resilience, movement, and transformation.

Drawing on the curves, flows and forests of the South-West English landscape and the long‑standing equestrian heritage of Cheltenham, Rose’s practice blends sculptural mark‑making, layered materials, and arts‑and‑crafts influences to create richly textured surfaces that pulse with energy. Her work sits at the intersection of contemporary expressionism and tactile craft, offering a fresh, emotionally charged interpretation of one of Britain’s most enduring artistic subjects.

Set within Spring Cheltenham’s distinctive rotunda gallery, the exhibition creates an immersive environment that amplifies the work's physicality and presence. While rooted in place, Year of the Horse speaks to resonating themes: grief, healing, and the quiet power of renewal. Each piece reflects Rose’s own journey through loss and recovery, woven into the wildlife and landscapes that shape her daily life.

With its fusion of contemporary technique and emotional depth, Year of the Horse positions Jo Rose as an exciting voice in the evolving landscape of British art.

Artist Statement

Jo Rose is a Hampshire-born contemporary artist whose work spans an extraordinary emotional and physical range — from delicate, contemplative  pieces to raw, explosive large-scale works. She has exhibited extensively in London and across the South West, bringing her evocative, powerful work to a broad national audience.

Her practice is rooted in nature, folklore, and music, transforming fleeting moments into richly layered, deeply emotive worlds. Inspired by the colours, textures, and wildlife of her surrounding landscapes, Rose captures intimate snapshots of her walks through photography and sketchbooks. These moments become the foundation for her art, evolving in the studio into opulently textured, enchanting paintings. Guided by music, her process is both instinctual and cathartic — a visceral, physical reaction that fuels her creative flow. Some days this leads to intricate, meditative works that are quiet, reflective, and full of delicate details and ethereal narrative, inviting viewers to look closer and uncover hidden elements beneath the surface. Other days, it drives her to create bold, untamed pieces — explosions of movement and raw energy where form and texture collide in a riot of mark-making and vibrant expression.

Freya Saleh is an abstract artist exploring the ‘realm of the invisible’ through the study of essence and shadow. She characterises her work as being about ‘the phenomena of reading shadows, in the same way as one would read tea leaves, a palm or reflections on the surface of water.’

Much of her work is fuelled by ideas found in literature and poetry from the 1800s, in particular the Gothic genre. Saleh works deeply with an ochre based palette of reds, browns and golden yellows, as these are the pigments that unlock her visions.

TORN PAPER
Sara Hardstaff
11 - 17 February 2026 

I create huge, colorful torn paper collage’s ithat are vibrant and expressive, showing my artistic endeavor that combine various elements of creativity, emotion, and personal reflection.

After a motorbike  accident 26 years ago, I was left paralysed from the chest down, struggling to find ways of occupying my time and taking away the pain, I turned to my childhood passion - drawing.  I really enjoy drawing ink and experimenting with other mediums.  I happily did this for many years but after a while I realised I needed something new and totally original and that’s when in 2020 I discovered torn paper collage.

‘Hi, I’m Peter, an artist based in the beautiful Cotswolds. I work mainly in oils and acrylics and I’m especially drawn to light, how it shifts through a landscape, warms ancient hills or softens the edges of a memory. A lot of my work has a nostalgic feel, inspired by the quiet charm of the countryside and those small familiar moments that stay with you.

OVER THE HEDGEROW
Belinda Millar & Eleanor Wholley
10 - 16 December 2025

Step into a world where light dances across rolling hills and hedgerows whisper

stories of the land. OVER THE HEDGEROW brings together the evocative

landscape paintings of Belinda Millar and Eleanor Wholley, two artists whose plein air

and studio practice captures the fleeting beauty of the Cotswolds and beyond.

Their work invites viewers to wander through scenes both familiar and wild. With

brushwork that balances immediacy and depth, Millar and Wolley reveal the quiet

drama of nature—its rhythms, moods, and moments of stillness.

This exhibition is a celebration of place, perception, and the enduring allure of the

English countryside. Whether rooted in the Cotswolds or reaching toward distant

horizons, each canvas offers a portal into landscapes shaped by time and light.

Helen Arthur and Corisande Albert celebrate their creative friendship and mutual admiration for their practices in painting, printmaking and ceramics. Both artists are informed by their location living in the semi-wild Welsh borders landscape. They recognise how together their work creates conversation and embraces the natural influences of river, mountain and woodland.

Helen Arthur is a mixed-media painter and printmaker who runs Skirrid Studio & Gallery in Longtown, Herefordshire. She’s a tutor and directs community-led art events on the Welsh borders between Abergavenny and Hay on Wye.

Corisande Albert is a ceramicist making functional pieces in stoneware and porcelain. She uses a mix of glazes, brushed and dipped, to reflect the muted tones of the Welsh landscape of her home farm by the River Wye, near Hay. She also runs workshops and courses through Cabalva Ceramics, her pottery studio.

ESSENCE
Teresa Poole
26 November - 2 December 2025
Open daily 10am - 5pm
Final Tuesday 10am -1pm

Essence is the latest collection by Teresa Poole, a body of work deeply influenced by her early years restoring and painting Japanese screens. The result is a distinctive fusion of Eastern aesthetics and Western sensibility.

Drawing upon a chaos of memories, dreams, and emotions—of places glimpsed, visited, or imagined—Poole reconfigures these impressions like rooms in a museum of the mind. Through this process, she seeks balance and beauty, transforming disorder into harmony.

The works shimmer with vivid yet dreamlike imagery: flowing water, ethereal landscapes, and elements of nature rendered on glowing metal leaf and silk. Using inks, gesso, and patination, Poole creates a medley of colour and light—an exploration of memory, movement, and the quiet poetry within chaos.

“Caught my eye…”
Jane Overbury
19 - 25 November 2025
Open daily 10am - 5pm
Final Tuesday 10am -1pm

Jane’s paintings gently invite the viewer to look more closely at the landscape to understand what “caught her eye”.

The inspiration for each of these pieces was a single moment of observation, the light striking the side of a building or the shadows cast by a tree reflected in a puddle.

Whether almost abstract or clearly representational, each of these paintings employs a considered palette, creating atmosphere and suggesting memories of places which resonate in us all.

Saw it. Liked it. Painted it. Simple as that.
