Ilona explores themes of dominance and submission, power and vulnerability in instinctive, sweeping brushtrokes across aluminium, glass and resin board. Deliciously glossy and sensuous, her paintings are an exercise in both spontaneity and restraint - the narrative hinted at, the colour palette limited, the figures poised on the cusp, compelling and intense.

Daniel's work celebrates the urban environment, from vast panoramas to intimate studies of the city. Composed in his signature vivid colour palette and exploring the boundary between abstraction and figuration.
'He finds in the modest familiar view, quite often scruffy and down at heel, so much that is remarkable and beautiful'

Striking, stylised collage and monoprint inspired by classical art and antiquity.
‘My pictures are perhaps not collages in the conventional sense. I think of them also as paintings.'
Clare prepares her own papers, painting pattern and creating texture then cutting and tearing to produce the final image.

Henry explores the language of paint investigating the threshold between abstraction and representation.
A seed of inspiration will kick things off - a colour, a shape, a gesture, a memory - then the journey begins. He’ll often return to a work, painting over, adding, re-working. Over time expressive rhythms of colour and form emerge and repeat.
‘I want to make forms that feel familiar but are unnameable, forms that feel as though we might recognise them but are not “actual things”.’

Playful and expressive abstract paintings celebrating everyday acts of love. Using repetition, hidden layers of colour, fragments and erasures Jess explores the complex mental, physical and emotional loads that are involved in raising a family and keeping connected.
'What makes a good abstract painting? It has something to do with believing it is necessary rather than willed, that it is meaningful even if you can't put it into words. Jess Blandford's work has these qualities, as well as fleshy, sensual colours and brushstrokes, reminiscent of Willem de Kooning.' - Jonathan Jones Art Critic for the Guardian.

Kate brilliantly captures the colour, light and atmosphere using tissues and Japanese papers, alongside painting and drawing. Whether a fresh take on Venice or a colour-filled abstract she seeks to find an energy and balance.

Laura’s work is a hybrid of painting and sculpture. Her focus is minimalist, geometric abstraction exploring architectural form and colour. The sleek, even coloured surfaces are painted delicately so that they are free of gestural brush strokes and fields of saturated clean-edged colour appear to float on the surface of the wall.
"My aim is always to express an idea as simply and as elegantly as possible. To strip everything back to only what is necessary to communicate that idea. My work is primarily an exploration of balance, of positive and negative space, of presence and absence."

William has dedicated his life to the visual arts variously as Teacher, Critic, Curator and Author - and always as Painter. Fot the last 25 years he has focused on still-lives.
Each 'a little world, a tiny city, a paradigm and parallel reality to be explored in the imagination and realised in the act of painting'.
William works in natural light on fast surfaces using a muted colour palette. A regular cast of characters appear in his work often alongside ephemeral wildflowers. The painting and composition can change radically during the process of reconciling space, form and light onto the two dimensional surface of the canvas so the finished image is not always quite what it seems to be.
Iris
2025, oil on board
40 x 22cm
£1,100
An instinctive and masterly colourist whether working in oil, watercolour, gouache, pastel or ink. Her subjects were landscapes and interiors which she could simplify to the point of abstraction whilst delighting in ornament, pattern and decoration. Inspired by her extensive travels she has been described as a ‘Neo-romantic impressionist, with a touch of Bloomsbury at its best’ and a ‘latter-day fauve, unselfconscious in her debt to Matisse.'

Kirsty's childhood in rural Scotland meets her love of Modernist design and Brutalist architecture, combining abstract expressions of land and sky, with strong architectural line and negative space.
