President since 2018 David Sayle
Vice President from 2018 – Des Clague
I was born on the Isle of Man in 1946, following my early education I attended Kensington Road Art School in Douglas to learn a career in Commercial Art with the guidance of Norman Sayle and Eric Houlgrave.
I started my career with MDD a design studio in Northfield, Birmingham in 1965.
Later with much experience behind myself I created a design studio with Telford Press, Kidderminster who printed many of the carpet manufacturing brochures. In 1975 I joined Stowe and Bowden a Manchester advertising agency who owned an Isle of Man agency Gore Advertising where I was asked to set up a creative department.
Returning to the Island I found inspiration from its beautiful land and seascapes so much so that I put pencil to paper and so a new Manx artist was born.

Hon. Secretary from 2012 – Diane Moore
Hello! I have been a member of the Art Soc.since 2007, I was first inspired by my husband Robbie and my mother in-law Lilli Moore who are also members.
I have not done anything artistic since I was at high school some 30 years ago, so 6 years ago I gathered some paper and paints together and never looked back, I regularly attend Tuesday and Thursday evenings and since I have joined the Art Society my art work has improved immensely. Thanks to guidance of Catherine James and other members who attend.
