Richie is an accomplished artist who works with several traditional and digital media out of his studio in Llandovery. His work in Crafts Alive are local scenes created with a variety of digital tools.

Based near Porthryd, Viv uses a Littlejohn Press to produce limited edition prints, mainly of birds but also of local scenes. She works with a variety of techniques and accepts commissions.

I'm very lucky to combine my two passions in life. Firstly, travelling around the coastline of Europe in our camper van, with our golden retriever, beachcombing. Secondly, using the glass, crockery and all sorts of pieces made beautiful by many years in the sea, to produce my pieces.

Each find is thrilling, especially if it's a particularly vibrant colour or smooth, beautiful shape. Equally as thrilling is creating artwork from the discarded pieces made beautiful by the sea.

A well known local artist working in oils and pastels, Diane produces a wide range of local scenes from her studio in Henllan. Crafts Alive stocks Diane’s prints.

Jackie has her studio in Llandybie and describes herself as a wildlife and hyper-realist artist. She is also an accomplished ceramic artist.
