Naomi Frears

Artist Naomi Frears teaches our two day Monoprinting and Drypoint course.

Naomi Frears has exhibited her paintings widely throughout the UK with regular solo shows in Cornwall and Bath and many major group shows at public galleries including Tate St Ives, Falmouth Art Gallery, Newlyn Art Gallery and The Exchange Gallery.

'Her work dares and tests and attempts to resolve her intuitive instincts. The most rational stage of all in her making process is to decide when she is finished. It is gratifying to witness the results of these hard won endeavours – emotionally driven but never overly sentimental, joyous yet tinged with melancholy, and so skilfully crafted as to exude a poetic simplicity'.
