Laura Fox Printmaking Laura Fox Printmaking Laura Fox Printmaking 1/1 With a passion for print and pattern that started while studying my graphic design degree, I hand print contemporary multi layered lino prints from my North Somerset studio. I have developed a graphic printing style that is strongly influenced by local landscapes, travel and the details of nature, aiming to brighten up the world with a little bit of colour. Every design is meticulously hand carved, inked and printed for each colour individually, building up the layers to create the original print.

Tim Stephens Illustration Tim Stephens Illustration Tim Stephens Illustration 1/1 Inspiration comes in many forms but I have always been drawn to people, places and nature. Sometimes I combine all three! I draw influence from varied sources, as inspiration truly is all around us, but my current art style is shaped by environments and contours, subculture, expression and style, (and splash of humour can also be found in some of my pieces)! Alongside the artwork I produce for general release I also do lots of private commissions and am often working variety of commercial illustration projects. There are also fellow creatives that I find extremely inspirational and these include M.C. Escher, William Hogarth, Brian Bolland, Eric Fischl, Mode2, Charles Griffin, Rodney Matthews and Barney Farmer - to name but a few of many more! My work is hand drawn. I sometimes colour with ink and sometimes I scan my drawings and colour them in Photoshop using a digital drawing pad and pen.

Ian Price Art Painting/Drawing Ian Price Art Painting/Drawing Ian Price Art Painting/Drawing 1/1 I take inspiration from my immediate environment often painting outdoors before developing larger or more abstracted works in the studio. Originally from rural Carmarthenshire, I currently paint around the River Severn from my home in Portishead, where I also organise and run portrait and landscape courses. I often paint in oils using a limited palette to capture the beauty within this often bleak landscape. Complementary to this I enjoy the representational challenge of portraiture. I have successfully completed a number of commissions and have exhibited at the Holburne Portrait Prize in Bath. I have shown landscapes and portraits in many galleries and venues in and around Bristol and Bath including the RWA Autumn Exhibition and the Bath Society of Artists. I’ve also exhibited at the Mall Galleries in London with the Royal Institute of Oil painters and ING Discerning Eye exhibitions.

Tina Dodd Various Tina Dodd Various Tina Dodd Various 1/1 An artist whose main interest is in the landscape. Tina’s inspiration comes mostly from the Mendip Hills, where she has lived with her husband for nearly 30 years, and often involves working her way through lots of iPad photographs taken on her walks or through the window on car journeys. This has become an important part of her creative process. “Colour can be a distraction for me and so I work from the images to produce monochromatic drawings in charcoal or graphite. These materials help me achieve the wonderful contrasts of light and dark that I see in the landscape.” In recent years Tina has been exploring printmaking techniques, in particular monotypes, as a medium through which she is able to achieve the changing moods and contrasts of light and dark that she finds. Further afield nostalgic memories of holidays on Exmoor and the dramatic landscape of Dartmoor have inspired Tina to find a way of expressing those feelings. Given that drawing is at the heart of her creative practice yet wanting colour to play a part, Tina finds that mark-making with vibrant pastels allows her to do this in a manner that suits the way she likes to work. Tina has had work selected for, amongst others, the Friends of the Royal West of England Academy exhibitions in Bristol and the Bath Society of Artists Open Exhibitions. She runs regular art classes in her village and is a visiting art tutor to various local art groups. More information can be found on Tina’s website.

Anna Warsop Painting/Drawing Anna Warsop Painting/Drawing Anna Warsop Painting/Drawing 1/1 As an artist, I am inspired by the aerial landscape and maps, which allow me to view the world from a unique perspective. Through my paintings, I aim to evoke a sense of wonder and awe, inviting the viewer to see the world through my eyes. My work combines elements of abstraction and realism, blending the intricate details of maps with the flowing lines, patterns and textures found in nature. My process derives from photographs taken from commercial flights, satellite imagery and the study of maps. I use a varied combination of acrylic paint, collaged hand made papers, photographs, and mono prints, often sanding back the surface and applying glazes to create a rich surface. I gained BA hons in Fine Art (painting) first class from UWE, returning to gain an MA in multi disciplinary printmaking in 2008. I have exhibited nationally and internationally in selected exhibitions including, Royal Academy Summer Exhibitions, Mall Gallery Originals Contemporary Printmaking Exhibitions, RWA Annual Exhibitions, and Marzia Frozen gallery Berlin. Public Collections Bristol Museum and Art Gallery International Graphic Art Foundation, New York, USA Cadeques Contemporary Print Collection, Spain Bristol City Council Cheltenham and Gloucester Contemporary Print Collection.

Jud Apter Painting/Drawing Jud Apter Painting/Drawing Jud Apter Painting/Drawing 1/1 Jud has a background in teaching printmaking and working as a graphic designer, though is currently painting in oils. She is mostly inspired by local landscapes and waterscapes which sometimes hint at a background narrative. Dramatic light, ancient structures - both natural and man made, elevating the mundane, line, colour, forgotten corners, texture, stillness and contrast are all prompts to take up a brush and paint.
