A showcase of sensual paintings by artist Lesley Jones and desirable hand built furniture by wood turner Matthew Corbishley.
A showcase of sensual paintings by Surrey based artist Lesley Jones and desirable hand built furniture by London based wood turner Matthew Corbishley.
Lesley Jones graduated from Central St. Martins in 1996. She is fascinated by the details found in natural forms; the shape and structure of plants and rocks provide inspiration for her abstract paintings which to the eye become 3 dimensional due to Lesley’s technique of mark making and blending.
Matthew Corbishley grew up in Farnham and studied at the prestigious Building Crafts College in London found by the Worshipful Company of Woodturners. Currently Matthew’s workshop is based in London, though he is keen to return to Farnham and establish himself in the Surrey market. Matthews work combines traditional wood working skills with sharp contemporary design.
