In April 2025, artist Nasim Yazdani joined The Art Circle Bath, an active and welcoming group of creatives based in the city of Bath.

The Art Circle provides a vibrant platform for local artists to connect, collaborate, and support each other through exhibitions, events, and ongoing conversations around artistic practice. Shortly after joining, Nasim attended one of The Art Circle’s art social and networking evenings, held at The Raven Bath Library. The event proved to be a special evening filled with thoughtful presentations and lively discussion. Many well-established artists, based in Bath, gathered to connect over shared creativity.

The evening featured presentations by four talented artists:

Amy Prescott (Instagram/ @amyeliza_illustrations) shared her nature-inspired illustrations, often sketched en plein air and transformed into beautiful prints using ink, watercolour, and digital editing. She also spoke about her approach to Instagram marketing and keeping her work accessible through affordable pricing.

Christine Mckenzie (Instagram/ @christine_mckenzie_art) took the group on a visual journey through her large-scale paintings inspired by travel, from architectural scenes to tropical beaches. She offered insights into balancing art with a day job, finding her audience, and staying committed to painting through highs and lows.

Jo Thorne (Instagram/ @jothornefineart) presented one of her latest abstract works, developed through music, sketching, and a deep connection to colour and scale. Having recently transitioned to full-time art practice, she shared valuable resources on pricing and gallery collaboration.

Hetti Dysch (Instagram/ @hettidyschart) showcased two of her bold, textured abstract paintings created with a palette knife using oil and wax. She spoke about her technique of layering fluorescent under paintings to create a captivating luminosity that shines through the final piece.
