Southbank Bristol Arts

Derek Adams Handcrafted leatherwork

I use traditional methods, notably hand-stitching to produce quality leathergoods, bags, belts and notebooks. I work with selected, quality leather, so designs are pleasing, individual and give good service over many years.

I aim to keep prices realistic for the quality of work produced.

Har har! Me hearties! Be swept up into the top-deck cabin and behold a wonderful treasure trove of illustration delights, goodies, gifts and trinkets. Hosted by Bristol's 50 strong illustration collective, they'll be plenty of framed original work, prints, toys, badges, cards and all manner of goodies - all fairly priced too! Shiver me timbers and blow me down!!

If you have yer wits about yer then be sure to snaffle some of the tasty grub that be offered by our pirate wenches and Tom the cabin boy. Pieces of eight!! And take heed mind, if ye don't want to be slipped the black spot, then best visit our home port www.drawninbristol.co.uk

Award winning Textile Artist, Angie Parker, will be showing her handwoven rugs, wall hangings and up-cycled chairs.
Her bold use of colour gives a contemporary feel to the traditional Scandinavian techniques she uses, and rich textures are created by using a variety of yarns in each piece.

Weaving demonstrations are another reason to visit this venue, as Angie will be busy 'sampling' on her table loom for the duration of the Arts Trail.

Jenny Silverman (Printmaker) and Katie Murton (Ceramics) are also showing at this venue.
