Ceal Warnants Girls Are Loud Digital Print Signed on Verso 10 x 15cm (3¾ x 5¾ in.) About b. 1984, Guildford, Surrey. Lives and works in London. The work draws parallels between the youth of 'then' and 'now'. The angst is the same but the pressures are different. Basing work on illustrations from the past helps to lend it an authenticity but also highlights the differences between two timeframes. Innocence is the truth of childhood whatever the era and it is fascinating.

Mandy Franca Dusk I Textile, Oil Pastel and C Type on Paper Signed on Verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) About As a multidisciplinary artist Mandy Franca researches the influence of the digital realm on artefacts, mundanity and the influence of migration. Franca's work is an ongoing investigation into the notion of interconnectedness, drawing from life experiences which are informed by growing up in a cross-cultural environment and her personal archive. Mandy actively researches and observes the meaning of mundanity to give eternal value to seemingly insignificant places and objects. As a result, the notion of preserving languages, traditions, domestic settings and everyday objects in a state of flux - meaning - digital and physical due to digitalization and globalization, takes precedence in her work. Franca's priority is to bring the individual experience into a broader communal context and show the parallels between our common needs, objects and experiences with the notion of care as a fundamental aspect of being. As an artist she subverts and challenges the traditional application of printmaking by experimenting with a range of artistic mediums which intersect at painting, photography, print, drawing, collage, video, sculpture and installation using the photographic image and mark-making as a recurring element. With these techniques Franca wants to challenge ideas of digital materiality, painting and the reproductive image.

Gillian Garnica Etosha Carborundum on Paper Signed on Verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) About Gillian's work is about paring down line and form to a minimum in order to create a quiet yet powerful presence.

These spare compositions convey a repose from the noise and fast pace of contemporary life. Education First-Class Degree in Photography and a Masters in Multidisciplinary Printmaking from University of the West England. Select Exhibitions/Awards Winner of the Galleries Magazine Award at BITE: Artists Making Prints and Rebecca Smith Award. Recipient of UWE Print Fellowship with bursary to study etching at Crown Point Press in San Francisco. Gallery Representation Smithson Gallery Statement about AOAP Submitted Artwork Whilst printing with carborundum, a fine silicon carbide, it reminded me of a natural salt pan.

Vicky Oldfield Bee Screenprint on Paper Signed on Front and Verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) About Vicky is an artist and printmaker who likes to find beauty in the everyday - some weeds on a roadside, or a cluttered windowsill can set off a new collection. She treasures both the eccentric and the ordinary, inspired by collections of found objects and natural forms; she is fascinated with the structure and design found in flowers and plants, often redrawing the same plant many times over to explore the subtle variations in its form. Paintings often tell a story using collage and drawing, referencing a memory, time, or place. She starts with drawing often directly on to the plate, which is then drawn into and collaged with a variety of materials, card, fabric, paper, string, sand, and anything else that may come to hand; it's recycling at its most creative! The plates are then sealed, inked up and printed in intaglio or relief on damp paper using an etching press. The embossed textural quality of the print is unique to this method. They are often printed in one colour and then hand painted. Thanks to the process itself, Vicky can make small editions of the image; each edition will vary within its run due to the process itself and her desire to experiment. Each print produced is then unique. Education BA(Hons) Design Select Exhibitions/Awards She was elected a member of The Royal Society of British Artists in 2021. Her work has been exhibited in many major shows including the Royal Academy Summer exhibition and, she has also exhibited in America and Japan. Her work can currently be seen in many galleries across the UK.

Vicky Oldfield Patterns of Absence Etching on Paper Signed on Front and Verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) About Vicky is an artist and printmaker who likes to find beauty in the everyday - some weeds on a roadside, or a cluttered windowsill can set off a new collection. She treasures both the eccentric and the ordinary, inspired by collections of found objects and natural forms; she is fascinated with the structure and design found in flowers and plants, often redrawing the same plant many times over to explore the subtle variations in its form. Paintings often tell a story using collage and drawing, referencing a memory, time, or place. She starts with drawing often directly on to the plate, which is then drawn into and collaged with a variety of materials, card, fabric, paper, string, sand, and anything else that may come to hand; it's recycling at its most creative! The plates are then sealed, inked up and printed in intaglio or relief on damp paper using an etching press. The embossed textural quality of the print is unique to this method.

Mandy Franca Dusk II Textile, Oil Pastel and C Type on Paper Signed on Verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) About As a multidisciplinary artist Mandy Franca researches the influence of the digital realm on artefacts, mundanity and the influence of migration. Franca's work is an ongoing investigation into the notion of interconnectedness, drawing from life experiences which are informed by growing up in a cross-cultural environment and her personal archive. Mandy actively researches and observes the meaning of mundanity to give eternal value to seemingly insignificant places and objects. As a result, the notion of preserving languages, traditions, domestic settings and everyday objects in a state of flux - meaning - digital and physical due to digitalization and globalization, takes precedence in her work. Franca's priority is to bring the individual experience into a broader communal context and show the parallels between our common needs, objects and experiences with the notion of care as a fundamental aspect of being. As an artist she subverts and challenges the traditional application of printmaking by experimenting with a range of artistic mediums which intersect at painting, photography, print, drawing, collage, video, sculpture and installation using the photographic image and mark-making as a recurring element. With these techniques Franca wants to challenge ideas of digital materiality, painting and the reproductive image.

It is telling a story but indirectly often through representation and sometimes through simple shapes and pattern. She works with a variety of processes including drawing, photography and print. The relationship between drawing and surface is important whether that be watercolour paper, women's magazines, digital images or domestic linen. These drawings are part of an on-going examination of hair in all its beauty and uncanniness. They are concerned with the sense of loss and otherness that is present when hair is removed from the body. In these images the figure is absent but the woman is nevertheless present; represented by her hair.

Marcelina Amelia Moonlight Watercolour and Acrylic on Paper Signed on Verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) About Marcelina Amelia is a contemporary artist, based between the UK and Poland, working with mixed media approaches to print, painting and drawing. She often draws inspirations from her Polish heritage, looking to religious iconography and folk tales, as well as childhood memories, the power of dreams, spirituality, sexuality, and the human condition. According to her Mum, Marcelina started drawing before she could properly speak. She has been featured in publications including Booooooom, Bomb, Art Maze, Create Magazine, Digital Arts, Vogue, Refinery29, The NY Times, Der Spiegel and Ballad Of Magazine and is also a founder of art-brand Mesh Studio. She exhibits work throughout the UK as well as internationally and was a featured artist at the 2017 edition of the London Illustration Fair and led The Big Draw sketch walk for Apple. In 2018 Marcelina was Saatchi Art's featured 'Artist in Spotlight' at The Other Art Fair in Bristol and her artwork adorned thousands of tote bags promoting the fair. This year Marcelina was also a featured artist at the Affordable Art Fair Battersea's Live Art event. Added to that her work was displayed at Boxpark Croydon, made an appearance at 2018 London Fashion Week and she has been invited to take part in the infamous 'Art on a Postcard' secret auction alongside some big names in the art world. Rebecca Wilson, the chief curator at Saatchi Art, highlighted Marcelina as an artist to invest in at her talk at The Other Art Fair in London in 2018. In addition, Saatchi curator Monty Preston said she was "unquestionably an artist on the rise" Marcelina says, 'I like to play at the tense borders between lust and innocence; joy and sadness; fun and pain. My interest in juxtaposition comes from my origins and fascination with East European culture which was eloquently described by Grayson Perry as 'nowhere else could such horrific grief be met with such fairly-tale romanticism'. I tend to utilise nature as a metaphor for everyday feelings and headaches. My recent work also dwells into themes of self acceptance, body positivity, representations of the female sexuality, gender, migration, and society. Although some of the subjects I take on are often quite dark I like to think that there is some humour and light in my finished artwork.'

Nicole Rose Breeze 1 Oil on Paper Signed on Verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) About My work, as an artist and designer, explores my emotional response to the natural world around me. I primarily create abstract paintings based on the landscape. Using layers of oil colour and a sweeping brush technique the finished paintings take on an ethereal quality. Alongside my paintings I also create complementary prints that are at once a reflection of the original painting - and a new perspective on it. Focusing on a photographed section of a finished painting, I work in Photoshop to reimagine and rebalance, creating a run of limited-edition giclée prints that are both a part of the original works - and a fresh response to the landscape in their own right. My current selection of paintings and prints have been created following visits to nature reserves where I records sights, sounds, colours and routes taken, to remember and work from in my studio. I graduated from Central St Martins School of Art in 1992 with a BA in Graphic Design. I have had a successful career as a Creative Director, running my own commercial design studio for many years, and now work from my art studio in North London.

Mandy Franca Dusk III Textile, Oil Pastel and C Type on Paper Signed on Verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) About As a multidisciplinary artist Mandy Franca researches the influence of the digital realm on artefacts, mundanity and the influence of migration. Franca's work is an ongoing investigation into the notion of interconnectedness, drawing from life experiences which are informed by growing up in a cross-cultural environment and her personal archive. Mandy actively researches and observes the meaning of mundanity to give eternal value to seemingly insignificant places and objects. As a result, the notion of preserving languages, traditions, domestic settings and everyday objects in a state of flux - meaning - digital and physical due to digitalization and globalization, takes precedence in her work. Franca's priority is to bring the individual experience into a broader communal context and show the parallels between our common needs, objects and experiences with the notion of care as a fundamental aspect of being. As an artist she subverts and challenges the traditional application of printmaking by experimenting with a range of artistic mediums which intersect at painting, photography, print, drawing, collage, video, sculpture and installation using the photographic image and mark-making as a recurring element. With these techniques Franca wants to challenge ideas of digital materiality, painting and the reproductive image.
