This hugely popular and affordable art fair is back with a wide selection of contemporary Sussex artists.

The work featured includes vibrant, abstract paintings, landscapes and figurative pieces.

Patrick O'Donnell's dramatic oil paintings stem from his interest in nature and the effects of light.

O'Donnell's art changed drastically when he moved from Southampton to Brighton in 1997.

The great sense of freedom he gains from the sea and Sussex landscape is reflected in his work. Luminous colours converge in what appear to be great natural events.

O'Donnell says: "I want to create images that have impact, some of which might seem like the aftermath of natural disasters. Rather than fearing these phenomena, I choose to celebrate them."

Simon Taylor's unique, decorative ceramics are inspired by archaeology - in particular, Roman and Saxon urns, plates and ceremonial vessels.

Some of his objects are fired whole, others are fired in pieces.

By using sawdust and ingredients such as salt and oxides, a great range of colours and smoky patterns is produced during the firing process.

Taylor then pieces the vessels together to achieve a fragmented, archaeological appearance.

The beach scenes painted by Tom Hammick are formed of flat figures, simple lines, bold form and colour.

The characters in his pictures sit or stand on the beach and look out to sea.

Although these scenes are familiar to us all, Hammick's astute sense of line, proportion and colour transforms his paintings of the everyday into moments that, in some way, promote nostalgia.

He captures the vastness of the sea and the way in which people make it their own.

Executed with acrylic and crayon and embellished with sequins, Teresa Stewart-Goodman's pictures depict animals.

These colourful and humorous creatures stare at us as we approach their world, so assured are they in their various roles.

The fair is perfect for those wanting to buy art or to simply enjoy Sussex talent.
