New Artists and Studios at the Williams Mill

There is always something new at the Mill, that is why it is worth repeated visits. New art, New classes, new events .. and new artists! And from time to time, our present artists move on up to a different Mill studio.  

The Williams Mill is pleased to welcome new artists in the studios! We know you will be delighted as we are by their creativity! 

Manny Martins, owner of Marblue Photography is on the main floor of the Yellow Building. Manny takes beautiful portrait photographs and accepts commission portraiture work. He has an inspiring selection of large fine art landscape photographs meticulously printed on canvas in his studio. 

Helen Vella is a new artist on the Main Floor of the Yellow Building. Helen specializes in watercolour colour paintings of Ireland, nature and the region. She does delightful small pencil portraits on commission as well.  

Our wonderfully creative jeweller, Naomi Assenheim, of Opal Wing Creations, has moved from the Stone Building to the Yellow Building. Naomi's silver and gemstone creations are extremely popular with her fans and with the artsits of the Mill too. Her new studio with its own entrance is the perfect location for this prolific artist's shop and work space. 

A while ago, Christine Montague, who had her studio where our wonderful new Education Centre now is, moved to a larger inspiring studio on the Main floor of the Stone Building.  It is the perfect location for Christine's large realistic  oil paintings of figurative landscapes, nature, portraiture commssion and the occassional large scale cat.
