Martin Webster
Deputy Chairman
Retiring to Salisbury I joined the Salisbury Group of Artists having never been part of an art group before and came to the Friday afternoon group sessions where I received a warm welcome. I now paint predominately in acrylics and am moving in a more semi abstract/abstract direction. Being someone who believes profoundly in people and communities I have recently offered to become deputy chair for the group to help further its aims of making painting fun for all, but also giving an opportunity learning to get better at it. I look forward to working with a lovely group of people to see what sort of journey we can create together.

Exhibitions
I have lived in Salisbury for over 20 years, joining the Salisbury Group of Artists a few years ago. A self taught artist, I have always had a passion for drawing and painting - I started sketching in my late teens, during my travels around the world. Why do I paint? Because the relaxation it affords allows me to become absorbed in the mysteries of creativity. Because of the challenge of working with colour of every sort. Because it gives a fantastic sense of achievement. Because I see painting as a life-long project, filled with endless opportunities.
Derek Flint
Treasurer
I have a very simple task as Treasurer – I count the income and pay the bills, hopefully in that order.
Art was never my forte at school but over the years I have come to appreciate its cultural significance and I am now amazed at the breadth of people’s talent.

I work from sketches using a variety of media and particularly enjoy oils.
