Carol Nunan will be at Stirling again this year. We love her colour choices and the ethereal atmosphere in her prints. The layering of texture is also impressive.

Caroline Convey creates beautiful prints of birds that are always popular with visitors. We love her strong sense of light and colour as well as the way she uses reflections to enhance her subjects.

Caroline Paterson will also be joining us this year. The variety in her work is remarkable, from an almost dystopian vision to wildlife and figurative, she brings so much skill to each. We look forward to seeing her work at Stirling in August.
