Violet Hill Studios Poetry & Art.

Birds make great sky-circles of their freedom. How do they learn it? They fall, and falling, they're given wings. Rumi


Violet Hill Studios has been described as an 'Oasis for the Soul' and we would like to capture a little of the sense of beauty that can be found in the Centre by printing spiritually uplifting poems and teachings that touch the heart and soul.
Our vision has been to combine Healing and Art and create an environment where both can live and thrive together.
The paintings illustrated are just two of many very beautiful works of art by children aged 5 to 14 who live in the Manchuria district of North East China.
The Studios have become one large working gallery and space for creativity with a constantly changing range of exhibits.

These and other Chinese paintings which are on display at Violet Hill Studios are for sale. They cost between £85 and £95. We have established a charity and all proceeds from the sale of these paintings go to the children and their families in China.

This wall painting dated 1834 revealed itself while we were having the workshop room redecorated. It was discovered by Chris Jerome "I saw shadowing and what looked like images and very carefully we uncovered this amazing 19th Century mural".

The painting, entitled Toxophilites (love of archery), was restored in 2002. It depicts the archery fields that surrounded the tavern, as part of 'pleasure grounds, which also provided quoits, bowls, cricket and lawn billiards'.
