Scottish artist, Hermione Gibbs was raised in the bonnie Highlands. Born in 1988, she started painting as a child where she was captivated by her wild surroundings. A family holiday to the Outer Hebrides each summer was where it all began: “I remember having picnics on the white shell sand beaches and being mesmerized by the crashing turquoise waves beneath the angry clouds scudding along the mountainous skyline” Hermione would go on to capture the quick changing landscapes and feathery wildlife in a dreamlike way; a form of Magical Realism.

Hermione expanded her knowledge of drawing and painting during a foundation course at Edinburgh, and she continued to identify herself as an artist in Florence over a six year period. Travelling around the world to explore new countries and express their exuberant surroundings is what really inspired her. The colours of Cuba, India, Greece, Italy and in particular Scotland, are all reflected in her work.

  Sam Hodge Every Contact Leaves A Trace 1 - 11 June 2023 Private View: Saturday 3 June, 5-8pm 195 Mare Street | London E8 3QE   RSVP Hackney-based painter and printmaker Sam Hodge exhibits recent work in one of the neighbourhood's oldest houses. With a history spanning more than three centuries, a multitude of inhabitants have left their mark on the fabric of the building; made intentionally or incidentally, some obvious and exposed, many concealed. Taking its title from a founding principle of forensic science,  Every Contact Leaves a Trace  documents the artist's encounters with her environment. Parallels to geological or biological investigations are evident in Hodge's approach to the marks left by natural and manufactured events. The connection between human and material realms runs like an undercurrent through her practice. Whether making pigments and inks with earths, plants and human debris, printing from discarded materials or giving new meaning to found objects th

Max Birne

By Phillip Worth (FPS President) The Open Studios movement has been a welcome development in the art world in recent years. Typically based on specific areas, be they counties, cities, districts or whatever, it involves artists inviting members of the public to visit their studios, to meet and talk with them, and to view their output. And it is always an added attraction if they can see artists at work. The area of West Sussex centred on Chichester has a particularly lively tradition, and is rich in creative talent, as the writer discovered on a recent visit. The occasion for this was to renew acquaintance with Max Birne, a former FPS personality, who has recently moved house from Wembley, where he had lived for many years, to Selsey, near Eric Coates’s ‘Sleepy Lagoon’. After the move Max lost no time in building himself a conservatory/studio at the rear of his bungalow and it was here that he entertained visitors during ‘Open Doors 2008’, a mandatory stop on the Chichester ‘Stud
