The Maker’s Art at the Heath Robinson Museum is a contemporary range of ceramics, jewellery and printed textiles that complement the imagination and enchantment of Heath Robinson’s work. The makers change every six months. Harrow Open Studios’ artists Nicole Lyster and and Lizzy Chambers have been selected for the tenth group who will be launched in mid-October just in time for the museum’s 5th birthday.

The Heath Robinson Museum introduces the new makers:

Nicole Lyster who lives on the Pinner/Rayners Lane borders, will be our next ceramicist. Her work is full of intriguing ideas that tell a great story. Our jeweller will be Lizzy Chambers from Wembley, who specialises in the highly original use of unexpected objects such as dandelion seeds and watch pieces. Thirdly we will welcome Jess Chan from South-West London, whose work, including scarves and bags, focuses on printed textiles and natural dyes.

Nicole invited artists participating in Harrow Open Studio to contribute a leaf to her creativi-tree. Each member was sent a blank porcelain leaf and invited to decorate it using their preferred method before sending the newly dressed leaf back to Nicole.

The tree has been installed at Harrow Arts Centre where you can see it in the flesh.

You can see it growing in this video https://youtu.be/p5KmCo7y1ko

Inspired by Music, I paint life.

Music is a universal medium, connecting to the hearts of humanity, free from the bounds of language, culture and creed. It has an extraordinary power to soothe, heal and regale.

Music is close to my heart. I enjoy painting with music playing in the background. Gradually, the influence of music grew on me and I took to painting music itself.

I developed a visual grammar and syntax for depicting music on canvas. And started singing my own melodies through colours.

The essence of music appears on my canvas, utilising harmonious mixtures of colours representing tonal harmony, wave motion – the rhythm, and the progression – the eventual merging of the notes into the infinity of time and space.

Over the years, I realized that the rhythms are not unique to music- one finds them in entire universe. That set me out on an extended trip of exploration in nature, in life and even in human emotions!

That explains my art.

I hope my art spreads lasting message of harmony, peace and positivity to my audience and to humanity in general.

As a watercolourist I have shown my work with the Royal Society of Marine Artists for many years and  I have been a member of the Society of Women Artists since 2000.

My inspiration comes from the outside world, usually the coast of Cornwall but more often than not a picture from my sketchbook. I have always enjoyed painting with watercolour, but recently I have moved into acrylics including mixed media.

Collage is a favourite and though it takes more time it brings another dimension to my work.
