The beauty of nature through the seasons
Upcoming open studios
How quickly the year goes! It is once again time to spruce up my workspace in readiness for Marlborough Open Studios.
I’ll be inviting visitors on all weekends in July between 11am and 5pm. This year I’ll be sharing with marythorneceramics.co.uk and janerenwick.co.uk.
MOS brochures are readily available in the town and the surrounding villages, but comprehensive information can be found on the MOS website.

Kate Wade, contemporary British landscape painter
I am a landscape artist working from my studio and gallery space near Avebury, in the heart of Wiltshire. Painting predominantly in watercolour and gouache (body colour), I also use media such as acrylics, acrylic inks and oils to make my work, depending on what I feel will best convey the characteristics of the subject.
Inspiration for my paintings invariably comes from the natural world, in all its infinite variation. The countryside and coast provide endless combinations of colour, pattern, shape and texture – beauty in the biggest sweeping vistas and the smallest seasonal changes.
Q&A
Do you paint commissions?
I am happy to undertake commissions provided that the brief fits within my normal subject matter and style of painting. Prices are based on the size of the required painting, any travel involved and the amount of preparation work required.
Please contact me to discuss commissioning a painting.
Do you run watercolour classes?
I run classes throughout the year at my studio near Marlborough in Wiltshire, and can provide individual or small group lessons on request.
"I want to catch these fleeting little glimpses of magic in my paintings, so that I can hold on to them. If I can trigger a moment of longing or nostalgia in the viewer, then I feel that it's a successful image. My aim is to remember the coolness of the bluebell wood or the buffeting wind at the top of the hill."
Exhibitions
I exhibit my work at Open Studio events in Marlborough and Swindon and at other venues throughout the year.
Please look out for dates on this website or get in touch if you would like more information.
