2025 shows and exhibitions
11th and 12th April - Cathedral Quarter Artisan Trail, Derby
4th and 5th May - Belper Arts Trail.
16 - 18th May, 10am - 4pm - Arts At The Folly at The Folly, Main Road, Lea DE4 5GJ, we can be found opposite the Coach House. This is my favourite show of the year. It takes place at my house and this year we have a line up of at least six fabulous artists who will be present to chat about their work. This is always a much loved and very friendly event with lots of cake consumed by everyone (and yes, we do offer GF and vegan cakes too). Judging by last year I would recommend arriving either fairly early or slightly later in the day as it was super busy over lunchtime. We are located very close to the popular Lea Gardens which will be in full bloom in May, so why not make a day of it! Tell everyone and bring a friend!
24th May- 1st June - TWASI exhibition at Nature in Art
24th - 26th May - Derbyshire Open Arts. See all my info here
About Frances
I am Frances Daunt an animal artist from Derbyshire (near Matlock). I work in a variety of media, from pastel & pencil art to painted art, alongside my ever popular map art. A lot of my artwork is now in private collections all over the world.
I believe that my love for animals shines through in my work, from a close up of a tiger’s face to a portrait of a beloved pet I work hard to capture the spirit and energy of the animal.
I do my best to raise awareness of issues affecting animals through my work and regularly donate pieces for charity fundraisers.
I exhibit in various shows across the UK - if you would like to see if I will be attending a show or exhibition in your area please check out my Shows and Exhibitions page or contact me.
I run a friendly Facebook page so if you would like to see what I am up to on a daily basis please follow me at Frances Daunt Animal Artist or if you are a regular Instagram user check out my Instagram page.
