Michael English

University Of East London (BA Hons Fine Art, 2004 , 2007)

Like anyone who feels the urge to create, I make art because I feel compelled to do so. I love it, enjoy it, and sometimes endure it.

Long fascinated by the emotional approach to light in the paintings of Rubens, Caravaggio, and fellow Baroque masters, I have always sought to explore the dynamics of light and dark in my own paintings - particularly through depicting the human form in modern interpretations of classical themes.

The inspiration for Lucy Unwin’s work derives from natural forms, be it organic shapes found in nature or the human figure.

Clare Shrouder

Other (BA(Hons) Illustration , 2004)

My artwork combines the disciplines of fine art and illustration to produce constructions that are a personal response to narrative text. Discovering the artwork of Joseph Cornell some years ago, I became excited by the possibility of creating artwork within found objects and after studying illustration, using a story as a starting point seemed like a logical step. Influenced by Pop Surrealism as well as contemporary illustration, my aim is to produce playful artwork based on adult themes, utilising the object as an artistic environment.

Fiona Biziou

Academie de Lei in Leuvan (Diploma in Fine Art , 2012)

I studied fashion design in London painting and designing silk dresses in translucent swirling colours as well as designing wedding dresses.

On moving to Belgium I studied Art at the BKO Academie and also at the Academie de Lei in Leuvan where I gained a Diploma in Fine Art. On moving to France I continued painting and sculpting in clay often working from a life model. I like to work spontaneously expressing free flowing emotions movement and sensitivity  using large brush strokes, colours intermingling to  intuitively saturate the canvas.
