20 Years of Penfold Press
Established in 2005 by printmaker Dan Bugg, the Penfold Press works regularly with a small group of creative talents to produce beautiful editioned prints. Artists work alongside Dan to develop ideas and explore the creative possibilities of printmaking, resulting in a body of work that shares a sense of joint endeavour and a celebration of the collaborative process.
The exhibition includes selected works by an amazing group of artists - a true celebration of printmaking and the work that Penfold Press have produced over the last 20 years.

Ideal Bookshelf illustrated prints
Ideal Bookshelf is the creation of American illustrator Jane Mount.
Established in 2008, Ideal Bookshelf make things for bibliophiles – with the firm belief that books make us better.
We couldn’t agree more - the selection of prints we have at Palette cover a range of curated bookshelves aligned with different themes, including collections of travel writing, poetry, adventure, feminism and books for children.
As Bath celebrates the 250th anniversary of Jane Austen’s birth this September, we of course have collections of her works too.
The prints work perfectly both as insightful reading lists and beautifully illustrated artworks.
View the collection of prints in our Gallery on the 3rd floor.
Tools, pigment & rust
Still lives by Claudia Newcome, 14th June - 9th August.
Focussing mainly on items from her studio, Claudia presented a collection of new works revisiting a theme started during lockdown, when she had no access to a studio and had little space to work with - singular everyday items, painted against a white backdrop, no set-up required.
Some objects are tools inherited from her grandfather, many of them covered in rust and bringing to mind the smell of the garden shed she loved as a child.
A selection of these works are still available to buy online via the Online Shop.
Maxine Clements
Anna Mac
Palette’s opening exhibition featured 3 artists based in the east of England who showed their work in Somerset for the first time. Maxine Clements, Georgia Green and Anna Mac each work across mediums spanning printmaking, assemblage and painting, to woven sculpture – each with their own unique approach to addressing colour, balance and texture.
