11 Alpen Kelly 7555 Central
After a lifetime of working in the art world mainly in the fields of painting, printmaking and photography, I came to world of jewellery some 15 years ago. Besides sterling silver and other precious and semi- precious metals, these pieces might use a bone, a pebble, or a shell, sand washed smooth. All are executed with loving care each piece handmade and unique. I continue to work in painting and photography as well as jewellery.

Indika is a Canadian artist whose style ranges from the representational to the abstract. Drawing primary influence from natural surroundings, his paintings and sculpture are unified by a style of layering, repre- sentative of humanity's complex relationship with our
experience and perpetually-evolving technique, developed over decades of extensive travel and study
13 Christine Hood 6560 Anderson Drive
Using metal, ceramic, textiles, willow, cane and found
sculpture and installation pieces in a palette of neutral, white, black and grey tones. Often raw and organic, for me making art is an intuitive process and my recent work is heavily influenced by Hornby life ...local sourced willow, pit firing and nature finds are among some of the materials that are incorporated into my art pieces.
14 Mary Preston 5115 Kirk Rd.
Mary Preston (aka The Pane in the Glass) has been creating glass art for the past 20 years. The richness and beauty in the colour and texture of stained glass make it a wonderfully satisfying medium in which to
to acquiring a kiln which allows for the expansion into the field of Fused Glass. Fused glass can be either decorative or functional. Terry Preston (aka The Knotty Old Man) has been carving for more years than he cares to remember. Kayaking and walking the ocean shores has brought him an endless supply of “knots” which all seem to have a face waiting to be released. Terry will be carving through the day and invites you to visit and ask questions about the carving process.

3 Susan Crowe 3130 Cannon Rd.
After completing a college course called “craft and design,” Susan Crowe mailed ofg letters to potters who hired helpers. She got a job on Hornby Island, in 1980, throwing pots despite never having heard of Hornby! Most of her work, over the last 41 years, has been functional stoneware pots and tiles. Two of her children also make pots. This January she started an adventure into stained porcelain, learning the Japanese technique called nerikome.
3 Ekta Nadeau 3265 Gunpowder
Purple Feet studio is Ekta’s creative playground, born from a passion for clay and art. She builds one of a kind pieces fuelled by her imagination. She dedicated the last 15 years to working with clay but her path began when her dad made her a throwing wheel from an old record player. Peter, musician and painter, has begun a new series of paintings—musicians on vinyl records. He also paints with glazes the famous bicycle on some of Ekta’s pottery mugs. Both Ekta and Peter participate in shows on Hornby and some of their work can be seen at the studio and the summer market.

7 Robin de Lavis 2750 West Carmichael
I am a colourist with a background in Classical Animation, Russian Iconography and Design. Lately I have been exploring the possibilities of computer software like Photoshop and Painter to explore the notion of landscape. Dylan Thomas sums up what I experience well: “I make one image—though ‘make’ is not the right word; I let, perhaps, an image be ‘made’ emotionally in me and then apply to it what intellectual & critical forces I possess…”
8 Karen Elder 4975 Arthurs Rd.
Bent-Tree-Studio was designed and built by my husband in true Hornby fashion using recycled materials including driftwood accents. I am truly inspired by many great artists but especially the Group of Seven and Emily Carr and painting nature in my own unique way with heart and soul is my forte. I am enthralled with the beauty of the BC Westcoast so tend to paint mostly seascapes, landscapes, flora and fauna. I paint with oils, acrylic and watercolour.
