Cathy Tabbakh Gracious Monstera Bouquet, 2020 Ink and Acrylic on Paper Signed verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) Cathy Tabbakh is a French contemporary artist working in both France and the UK. Her work collides imaginary forms with existing landscapes through the use of both architectural and botanical elements. Her compositions incorporate a hint of surrealism and a saturated colour palette to punctuate emotive mood and shadows. Tabbakh's bathroom series and recent still-lives show her desire to surround herself with green spaces combined with her love for contemporary interior design. Cathy exhibits regularly and works with international art advisors and curators.   In 2017, Tabbakh had her first solo show at L'Espace André Malraux in région Lyonnaise where she is from originally. In 2018, she was included in a group show at theprintspace, London. That same year, Tabbakh collaborated with Art on a Postcard, a charity organisation raising funds for the Hepatitis C foundation, which took place at The Other Art Fair, in Victoria House in London. In 2019, Tabbakh took part in another charity auction which raised funds for Reprive, a charity focussing on Human rights protections. This partnership continues via Planar Editions, an online design store selling prints in benefit for Reprieve, of which Tabbakh's work is included. In London, she has been included in Delphian Gallery's summer exhibition in 2019, also in a group show last summer with Bowes-Parris Gallery at Blue Shop Cottage. During lockdown, she was included in the "Lockdown Editions", a print release by Delphian Gallery to help artists during the pandemic. She will be returning to Art on a Postcard for their October auction in London. Tabbakh also has an online presence via Bowes - Parris Gallery in London, and The Curators, an art platform based in NYC selling and promoting emerging artists. Cathy will also be showcasing works with Maison Contemporain next month, a Parisian platform. She will also be returning at The Other Art Fair in a group show curated by Aida Wilde next March.

Fiona Bradford Allmost to the Day, 2020 Oil on Card Signed verso 10 x 15cm (3¾ x 5¾ in.) Fiona Bradford is a British contemporary artist based in Somerset. Predominantly a painter, Fiona's material and process-led practice attempts to articulate the space between what 'there is' and 'there is not'; a point of potential immanence. This is not a tactic for avoidance or resolution, but a curiosity about the nature of impermanence and a drive to respond to the transformative and mutable potential of the medium.   The work is informed by ideas related to the principles of emptiness and uncertainty. Emptiness is not seen as a 'thing' or 'state of being' but rather a process or 'state of becoming'. In relation to painting she sees uncertainty as a tool - a way to figure her practice by using uncertainty purposefully. These persistent interchanges between the tools and her intentions convey an agitation, an unavoidable restlessness in the work:   "The intention is to work towards making paintings that evolve rather than arrive at a destination. As a painter my task as I see it is to try and apprehend these reverberations. I see understanding as contingent; it's messy. Repeated trial and error with pigments, oils, airbrush, spray painting and collage does not preclude other modes of working such as doodling, daydreaming and deferral. By experimenting with strategies of hesitation, delay and deceleration, most recent work stops short of being explicit".   Fiona received an MA Fine Art from The Arts University Bournemouth in 2016 having graduated with a first class honours degree in Fine Art from Plymouth University in 2013. She exhibits regularly in the South-West.

Taylor O. Thomas Untitled, 2020 Oil and Pastel on Paper Signed verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) Taylor O. Thomas is an American painter who uses gestural painting as a means of making manifest human tendencies, ways of seeing, and the interconnection between the body and the mind. Her paintings have been exhibited in galleries and private collections across the United States and in Italy, Spain, Singapore, and China. In 2012, Thomas graduated magna cum laude from Davidson College with a BA in Studio Art. She was then awarded a Graduate Fellowship by the University of South Florida and earned her MFA in 2019. Thomas is the recipient of an inaugural Innovate Artist Grant, a Peripheral Vision Publication Fellowship, a two-time role as Publication Juror for Friend of the Artist, a Regional Artist Project Grant by the Arts and Science Council of Charlotte, NC, and residency scholarships to attend Vermont Studio Center (Johnson, Vermont) and Benaco Arte (Sirmione, Italy). Other residencies include MassArt's Art New England and Deli Grocery New York. Thomas currently lives and works in Tampa, Florida. Thomas is represented by Deli Grocery New York (Brooklyn, NY) and Emily Friedman Fine Art (Los Angeles, CA) . A painting may begin with a gesture I have borrowed from a dilapidated wall, cracking tile,scurrying commuter, or draping telephone wire. It continues based on the objects that jolt myattention within my studio walls. I mine for forms that approach "rightness" and "wrongness"simultaneously, gathering references to expand upon and manipulate. Gestural painting is mymeans of creating a tactile language, as I question what it means to live fully into the body.I visualize my environment with a collage mentality- jumping from shape-to-shape and texture-to-texture- cultivating a way of seeing that directs my intuitive way of making. This interactiveresearch that occurs outside of the studio serves as the preface for my work within it. Myphysical marks are embodiments of my being and moving through the world. Materialexperimentation is also a key factor in creative decision-making. Playing with paint's plasticityand ambiguous spaces provides for more interesting routes to each unexpected end. I teeter-totterbetween the compositional "bones" I establish for a painting and the spontaneous actions thatdisrupt those plans. Be it the imprint of an old tool, or the smudgy scrawls made by my faultybrush, I choose to embed such moments in the work. By embracing studio residue andresponding to past and present images at once, I invite new layers of meaning, chance, andauthorship into my paintings.While my practice remains rooted in my attempt to unify self-expression with ongoingdiscovery, the optical and emotive qualities of each surface stretch beyond my singularperspective. The images are altogether thick and flat, direct and obscure, sensitive and markedlydeliberate. Through them, I question: Where do our collective ideas of mind-body connectednessstand today? What is the value of preserving the physical in a digital age? And how mightgestural abstraction be utilized as a mode of contemporary communication?

Sinéad Breslin Apple, 2020 Watercolour and Acrylic on Paper Signed verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) I strive to create contemplative spaces that function both as a mirror and a window. I'm inclined to use the figure as an anchor and a mechanism to explore ideas surrounding the metaphysics. I have a tendency to depict singular figures suspended within a range of diverse and often obscure settings. Perspectives are flattened, colours are exaggerated, and results often reference the absurdity of REM sleep. They function as both portraits and descriptions of place and time. Creating tension, intensity and relief though the materiality of oil paint is the continual goal.   Sinead Breslin completed her fine art education at the University of The West of England (M.A., B.A.) and has been awarded multiple international residencies in Europe, including the prestigious Palazzo Monti residency, and most recent; Adhesivo 2020 Summer residency programme. She has exhibited in solo and group exhibitions in the US, Europe, Russia, and Mexico, and her work is found in numerous private and museum collections. In February of this year, Breslin exhibited a series of new paintings at Zona Maco, Latin America's leading art fair with Marc Straus Gallery following a successful solo in NYC at the gallery. During summer 2020 she was selected to be a part of major online exhibitions with AoraSpace, Zeitgeist, and independent curators. This autumn she has had shows opening in Moscow with ArtIQ and New Jersey at Mana Contemporary. Breslin has various exciting exhibitions upcoming in the US, London and Russia in 2021.

Ryan Mosley Untitled, 2020 Ink and Pastel on Paper Signed verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) Mosley synthesizes art-historical themes, styles, and movements into surreal, folk-inspired paintings that are wholly contemporary, yet appear timeless. Mosley does not sketch his paintings beforehand, instead treating his paintbrush as a pencil to build large-scale images through layers of translucent washes for a batik quality. This spontaneous technique results in theatrical spaces and fantastic scenes, at once whimsical and tragic, ambiguous and intriguing. Mosley's work features recurring images of heads and masks, as well as harlequin-inspired, diamond patterned clothing, which serve as liberated and somber symbols of carnival and release. Mosley's "Southern Banjo," for example, features a minstrel playing a banjo underneath a tree. Isolated yet confident, Mosley's figure merges a Wild West appearance with stylistic elements culled from Henri Toulouse-Lautrec, Edgar Degas, Jean-Antoine Watteau, and Pierre Bonnard.   Ryan Mosley (b. Chesterfield, UK, 1980) trained at the University of Huddersfield and Royal College of Art, London; the artist lives and works in Sheffield, UK. Recent solo presentations include From the Verges, Galerie EIGEN + ART Leipzig/Berlin (2017); Anatomy and the Wall, Alison Jacques Gallery, London (2016); The Mirror Never Reflects, Eigen + Art, Berlin (2015); Susanne Vielmetter Projects, Los Angeles (2014); Thoughts of Man, Tierney Gardarin, New York (2013); Reversed Limbo, Eigen + Art, Berlin (2012), Alison Jacques Gallery, London (2011) and Painting Séance, Grand Arts, Kansas City (2010).   His work has featured in significant group shows including Walls Have Ears, Aston Hall Museum, Birmingham, UK, Malevolent Eldritch Shrieking, Attercliffeâ„¢, Sheffield, UK, Everything Flows, Millennium Gallery: Museums Sheffield, UK (2017); A New kitchen Sink, Josh Lilley Gallery, London, UK (2017); Ready for the Stage Act 1 (1900-2016), Arp Museum Bahnhof Rolandseck, Germany (2016); Painters' Painters, Saatchi Gallery, London (2016); One Day, Something Happens: Paintings of People, Hayward touring exhibition (2015); June: A Painting Show, Sadie Coles HQ, London (2015); The Islanders, Galerie Mikael Andersen, Copenhagen (2015); Zero Hours, S1 Artspace, Sheffield (2013); Nightfall, Modem Museum, Hungary (2012); London Twelve: Contemporary British Art, City Gallery, Prague (2012); Summer Exhibition, Royal Academy of Arts, London (2012); Merging Bridges, Museum of Modern Art, Baku (2012); and Newspeak: British Art Now, Saatchi Gallery, London (2010).   His work is included in Vitamin P3: New Perspectives in Painting published by Phaidon (2016); Picturing People published by Thames & Hudson (2015) and 100 Painters of Tomorrow published by Thames & Hudson (2014).   Mosley's work is part of the Arts Council Collection, UK; The Saatchi Collection, London and Falckenberg Collection, Hamburg.

Ariel Vargassal To Whom Who Wears the Crown II, 2020 Acrylic and 24k Gold Leaf on Paper Signed verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) Ariel Vargassal was born into a richly mixed culture family. These cultural singularities introduced Ariel to undeniable senses of style. He always leaned towards the arts and when he did not mold small clay sculptures, he turned to countless drawings in his notebook. Therefore, it was logical that Ariel followed a Bachelor of Fine Arts at the University of Mexico. In studying the works of the great artist who preceded him, his passion ignited and his determination proved unstoppable. Upon graduation, Ariel became one of the youngest teachers to teach art at a high school at Mexico City, and had the opportunity to showcase his work in different places, including the prestigious "Polyforum Cultural Siqueiros".   His first international exhibition was in Salt Lake City, Utah during the Winter Olympic Games as a host of the city, representing the visual arts of Mexico. After this exhibition, Ariel received invitations to showcase her work in area galleries as well as offers elsewhere in the US, so she decided to move to Los Angeles. Vargassal's work has been seen in various digital publications, books and television programs. In addition, he has been fortunate to work with young Hollywood stars as his models and clients.   Apart from Mexico City, Salt Lake City and Los Angeles, Ariel has shown her work in Arizona, San Francisco and New York. He is a member of the Los Angeles Art Association, one of the oldest and most prestigious art associations on the West Coast. He worked with International Curators in early 2013, his work was presented at the International Surrealism of Lisbon, Portugal, and recently received invitations to exhibit in Montreal, Canada (Galerie Gora, art contemporain), Germany (the Contemporary Museum of Berlin) and France.

A nod to this unprecedented pandemic and the challenges we have all faced during lockdown and a celebration of my curatorial debut 'The Most Powerful Woman In The Universe' which was held at Gallery 46 in Whitechapel last year."   A young British artist, painter and feminist, Kelly-Anne Davitt was selected by the National Portrait Gallery to exhibit in the BP Portrait Awards, immediately after graduating from London Guildhall University with a degree in Fine Art.

Jonni Cheatwood Hot Legzzz, 2020 Acrylic on Paper Signed verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) Jonni Cheatwood is a Brazilian-American visual artist working across many different disciplines including painting, photography, graphic design and textile art.   Cheatwood's work describes the broad visual ideas stemming from still life, abstraction and minimalism, but his approach is a wonderful amalgam of his artistic disciplines in which veritable scraps of canvas are hand-sewn together before his idiosyncratic mark-making is thereafter applied to the newly created surface. Denim, mesh, burlap sacks, t-shirts, blankets, t-shirts, screen-prints, and even his father's worn leather satchel have all made their way into his work at one time or another. The graffiti-like scribbles, scratches and primitive colours of Cheatwood's work is the controlled chaotic work of an erudite expressionist brought up on Saturday morning cartoons; suggesting deconstructed contour lines and bright, unforgiving primary colours often applied directly from the tube or oversize pastel. Beginning with direct marks, squiggles and doodles, Cheatwood reacts and builds up his compositions over time, working with the studio detritus that can build up as a result of working on the floor and from the physical nature of his process - allowing this to become part of his formation of the work. The many references housed in his work - whether intentional or unintentional - seem like a patchwork of Cheatwood's own autobiography - and the works come across like humorous albeit highly personalized recollections of his life at various times.   Jonni Cheatwood (b. 1986, Thousand Oaks, CA) lives and works in Los Angeles, California. He graduated from Arizona State University, Tempe, in 2011. Solo exhibitions include: ' Fresh Out of Fiddles', Makasiini Contemporary, Turku, Finland (2020); 'Tyger Tyger', Urban Spree, Berlin, Germany (2019); 'That's Dallas Baby, Artual Gallery, Beirut, Lebanon (2019); 'Dressed Up for the Letdown', Over the Influence, Hong Kong, (2018); 'She's Heavy on the Razzmatazz', MAKASIINI CONTEMPORARY, Turku, Finland (2018) and; 'Same Hero, New Boots', TW Fine Art, Brisbane, Australia (2018).

Amy Bessone Small Refuge 1, 2020 Mixed Media on Paper Signed verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) The work of American artist Amy Bessone draws on representations of the female figure throughout history. Described by Bessone as "feminine archetypes", these subjects form a central component of her paintings and sculptures, and reflect a range of sources, including ancient marble nudes, Renaissance reliefs and personal souvenirs. As the focal point of her evocative and playful landscapes, the artist's longstanding engagement with the female form relates to her desire to develop an artistic practice that is accessible. As she has commented, "what is more universally relatable than the human body?"
Bessone's meditations are informed by an interest to subvert existing portrayals of women in the cultural sphere, and the artist is equally passionate about citing art historical tropes which may appear in opposition to contemporary feminist ideals. Found objects are another key aspect of Bessone's practice. The items she cites within her work, especially in relation to her small-scale figurines and ceramic works, have been termed by Bessone as her "muses".
 Bessone was born in 1970 in New York, USA. She studied in Paris and Amsterdam from 1989-1995, earning a BFA from Parsons Paris School of Design, and received further education at De Ateliers, Amsterdam, The Netherlands. The artist lives and works in Los Angeles, California,

Bessone's meditations are informed by an interest to subvert existing portrayals of women in the cultural sphere, and the artist is equally passionate about citing art historical tropes which may appear in opposition to contemporary feminist ideals. Found objects are another key aspect of Bessone's practice. The items she cites within her work, especially in relation to her small-scale figurines and ceramic works, have been termed by Bessone as her "muses".
 Bessone was born in 1970 in New York, USA. She studied in Paris and Amsterdam from 1989-1995, earning a BFA from Parsons Paris School of Design, and received further education at De Ateliers, Amsterdam, The Netherlands. The artist lives and works in Los Angeles, California,

Jonas Burgert Log, 2020 Graphite on Paper Signed recto 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) Jonas Burgert is a contemporary German artist working in darkly comic, large-scale paintings. He is best known for his use of animals and people as ornamentation, often portraying them in the midst of ritual acts such as in Second Day Nothing (2008). Burgert's work has been compared to Hieronymous Bosch for its fantastical and tortured imagery, and his frequent use of North African motifs, which is inspired by a period when the artist lived in Egypt. Born in 1969 in West Berlin, Germany, he graduated from the Berlin Academy of Fine Arts in 1996 with his earliest works consisting of series of fractal images created collaboratively with the artist Ingolf Keiner. Burgert's first solo exhibition was at the Produzentengalerie Hamburg in 2006, and he has since been widely shown, including solo shows at the Denver Museum of Contemporary Art in 2008 and the Blain Southern Gallery in London, in 2014. He lives and works in Berlin, Germany.

Imam Raad Gaze (Zipolite), 2020 Acrylic on Paper Signed verso 10 x 15cm (3¾ x 5¾ in.) Iman Raad (Mashhad, Iran 1979) received his MFA in Painting and Printmaking from Yale University (2017), and was the Shandaken Projects' Paint School fellow (2017-18). He is currently a resident at the Queens Museum Studio Program, and an adjunct faculty at The Cooper Union School of Art. He lives and works in New York City.   Iman Raad works across a variety of media, including painting, drawing, embroidery, graphic work and performance lectures. In these diverse works, he draws on influences such as Persian painting, Mughal painting, South-Asian Truck painting and internet image culture. He combines these local references with contemporary subject matter to create his mural-like installations. Using a vivid, high key palette, altered perspective, and repetition that mimics digital glitches, the result is a riot of colour and movement that is both seductive and unsettling. Traditionally ornamental elements such as birds, fruits and flowers are recalibrated into subjects that carry narrative import and are given animate, unnatural presences. These are intertwined with social events and historical moments rendered in fantastical ways to draw in the viewer.   Aside from painting, Raad is also an internationally acknowledged graphic designer, included in The Phaidon archive of five hundred designs that matter, representing the contemporary Persian graphic design movement.   His recent solo exhibitions include Sargent's Daughters Gallery, New York (2021 -forthcoming), In Her Sweetest, Saddest Plight, Dastan Gallery at Frieze New York (2020), Tongue Tied, Sargent's Daughters Gallery, New York (2017) and Forty Drawings and So, Dastan Gallery, Tehran (2016).

While they are not anatomically aligned with known animals, they possess a surprising power to solicit our interest and empathy. What is their condition exactly? Like staring sentinels, they express a cartoon version of existential anxiety-watchful, hopeful, sad, stoic, and bewildered. Their lower bodies seem to be merged with the ground, fixing them in place like monuments. The intimate scale of these works and their accumulation of short pen strokes are reminiscent of the dense vision of Leonardo Da Vinci's "deluge drawings," and their compositions owe something to the surreal elegance of Salvador Dali's imagery. The unmistakable blue palette brings to mind bored students with Bic pens, filling the pages of their notebooks with fantastic beings.

So too Dorrell's colourful paintings seem a translation of sorts, a fantastic and painterly view into hidden places. The artist's pictures are distinguished by a sense of imaginative narrative and are rich tapestries of folktales, mythologies and impressionistic travel vignettes. Symbolic landscapes and figures evoke a sense of mystic interludes and the artist frequently draws upon imagery from regional religious imagery, terrain and the intersections of culture and experience. Because Dorrell studied anthropology he brings to his work, a knowledgeable and yet simultaneously open mindset that allows him to take in the idea of influence, preconceived notions, meaning and as well understand the complexity of the view of the traveller or the interloper. Through this process emerges a series of pictures that are often compared to the work of Marc Chagall and yet represent a contemporary world of symbiotic experience, place and tradition.   The artist holds his MA with Distinction, Painting, Wimbledon College of Arts, University of the Arts, London and his BSC, Anthropology, University College London. Dorrell has participated in a number of group shows including at Blasé, London 2019 and 2018; Lewisham Art House, London, 2018; Wimbledon College of Art MA Show, London, 2018.

Eric Inkala 6 Eyes in Blue, 2020 Acrylic on Paper Signed recto 10 x 15cm (3¾ x 5¾ in.) Brooklyn-based Eric Inkala is a self-taught artist whose highly visual and ever-evolving style has ripened from graffiti to pop art to contemporary art. His work presents a playful graphic language in the form of a signature character who serves as a vehicle for an autobiographical narrative. It's through this personal storyline that Inkala is able to channel thoughts and emotions into expressions of shape, colour and text. His universally approachable concept is amplified through increasingly complex patterns and symmetry,which over the years have reflected both the abstract escapades of his trademark character and Inkala's own artistic journey. Working primarily in acrylic, his paintings vary in size from large-scale canvas to sculpture, prints and small works on paper.   Eric Inkala was born in Minneapolis, MN. His work has been exhibited nationally at galleries such as THIS Gallery (CA), Parlour Gallery (NJ), Public Functionary (MN), Joseph Gross Gallery (NYC) and most recently at Cass Contemporary (FL) Scope Miami beach and Blackbook gallery in Denver Colorado. His work has also been presented internationally, most recently at Gallery Poulsen in Copenhagen Denmark. Inkala murals have covered walls in Minneapolis, Palm Springs, and at the Ace Hotel in New York City.
