Inspired by local surroundings, each artist has a unique way of interpreting the beautiful Devon landscape, the dramatic coastline, beach scenes and street life.

Artbeat 2017 promises to be an exciting and varied show and is a great opportunity to buy work directly from the artist.

Original paintings, prints, cards, textiles and gifts will be on sale.

Sidmouth artists taking part are Bente Kumar, Debbie Coles, Trixie Walker, Susan Paradise, June Murrell, Steph George and Rosemary McFarlane.

June and Debbie will be artists-in-residence during the exhibition and will be demonstrating their skills.

Artbeat is open daily from tomorrow (Saturday) until Sunday, September 24 from 10am to 5.30pm.

Admission is free.
