Sam Toft An Audience With Sweetheart Flat Brushed Bronze Frame. Single Mount.

Sam Toft lives by the sea with her two lovely dogs, and a pond full of fish named after the Shipping Forecast. She did not always want to be an Artist.

Instead she thought of working in a Post Office or being a Gymnast. However, in the absence of a suitable Circus to run away with, she went through a

number of jobs including a Fire Extinguisher Sales Person, a Wedgwood Rooms Worker, a Silver Service waitress, a Catering Manager and a Yoga Teacher

to name but a few.

After a Degree in Business Studies, and a year working in an office as a Death Grants Advisor in Kingston, Sam decided to move to Liverpool with her

sister and did a part-time BTEC in General Art and Design at City College. Here she met some kind and dedicated teachers who allowed her to dream that

she had finally found her vocation. Haunted by a return to Silver Servitude, she decided she really REALLY wanted to be an Artist and practised every day.

A strong work ethic, good friends and a healthy imagination have helped her on her way...

Today Sam works from a seaside studio, alone but for her dogs and BBC’s Radio 4. It’s a wonderful life, not without its ups and downs, and she feels

grateful to be making a living from drawing a whole bunch of imaginary friends. She is surprised and delighted to see her dear Mr Mustard go from

strength to strength. She dabbles in creative writing, sculpture and has recently made a whole cast of puppets from her well loved characters. It’s hard

work but she loves the idea of becoming a fledgling puppeteer. Now that’s an impressive moniker for the Passport!

Janet Bell Bright Meadow Raised Brushed White Frame. Single Mount.


Janet Bell Beach Huts Raised Brushed White Frame. Single Mount.

Janet Bell’s paintings are both engaging and playful with their detailed and colourful nature. Her work shows a unique take on the English seaside, traditionally British but with

a Scandinavian twist; her Danish roots evident in the colours and composition so prevalent within Nordic illustration today.

Janet began painting professionally in 2001 having studied textiles specialising in machine embroidery and screen printing. She began painting from a studio in Chester,

supplying original paintings and prints to galleries across the UK. Her work began to focus more and more on the British coastline and was inspired by trips to English seaside

towns and memories of playing on the beaches of northern Denmark where her mother was raised.

In 2007, Janet moved to the Isle of Anglesey with her husband, Sean, to open the Janet Bell Gallery in the pretty seaside town of Beaumaris. The intention was to sell a few

prints from a working studio space but the small side street studio quickly relocated to become a High Street success due to the popularity of Janet’s unique, happy, colourful

paintings of Anglesey.

Artist Rachel Dein’s method of plaster casting records the texture, pattern and delicacy of plants and flowers in a unique way, capturing the most intricate details.

Rachel studied art at Middlesex University before working as a prop maker for the likes of English National Opera, the Royal Opera House and the Globe Theatre.

Here she honed her skills in sculpting and moulding. Later, as a busy mother of three, Rachel set up her own studio in the attic of her north London home and began

experimenting with simple techniques of casting using clay and plaste

Hazel Bowman Ballerina Raised Brushed White Frame. Single Mount.


T. Good Silk in Greys Raised Brushed White Frame. Single Mount.

The female form is both the subject and inspiration

for T. Good’s work. Although the artist prefers

to keep the materials simple, with soft paper

and only one or two earthy pastel or charcoal

colours, the resulting nudes are highly sculptural.

The use of plain background allows the spectator

to concentrate on the ‘form’ of the human body

and, rather than creating a narrative in the work,

Good allows the models to pose themselves, so

as to capture natural moments, whether they be

sleep, meditation or deep thought.

Having come from a family of artists, Good studied

Art at Winchester, has since had exhibitions around

the UK and is currently represented by The Belgravia

Gallery, London.

Hazel Bowman is a Scottish figurative artist.

She has a passion for figures and delivers images

of the physical form with such skill and accuracy

that it is surprising to learn that she is completely

self-taught. Specialising in charcoal and mixed

media, Hazel creates powerful impressions with

the intention of catching that one special moment

on paper.

She collaborates with professional dancers from

Latvian burlesque to Russian, Argentinian and

Scottish ballet dancers. The energy and emotion

running through their routines is wonderfully

captured by Hazel’s images. Full of movement,

her drawings almost skip and dance across the

page, throwing the viewer directly into that dance

rehearsal room.

Jon Barker New Beginnings Flat Black Brushed Silver Edge Frame. Single Mount.

Jon Barker was born in Yorkshire in 1950. He enjoys a growing reputation and demand for his work which is held in private collections worldwide. Jon’s painting style is

fluid and expressive. His priorities are to express movement, power, sensitivity and tonal balance. His City Life paintings capture the fusion of movement and colour of people

frequenting busy streets and pavement cafés.

The aim is to transpose the mood and atmosphere of the moment into a permanent artistic statement, providing a glimpse of the lives of strangers who become increasingly

familiar to us and remind us of our own lives and the places we have visited.

affinity with the process - learning the age old disciplines of etching and relief

printing along with modern techniques. In 2001 she completed her Masters and

from there was launched into the gallery scene, selling work in London and the

south and west of England.

She founded the Brooks Smith Gallery in St Ives with her partner Rick Smith

in 2005.

Louise Brown Herbert Flat Brushed Bronze Frame. Single Mount.

Louise Brown’s love for animals is evident from the first glance at her artwork. Living in rural Lincolnshire surrounded by ducks and chickens, it

is easy to see where she finds her inspiration as an artist. Working predominantly in acrylics and oils, other subjects include cows, cats, horses and

the occasional still life. You don’t have to be an animal lover to appreciate Louise’s imagery and her talent is all the more impressive considering

she is entirely self-taught.

of the British countryside.

Quaint little cottages nestling among rolling hills and

Helen studied Woven Textiles at Loughborough College of Art & Design. Following graduation, she travelled around India before living and working in London for five years. She now lives in the

Midlands where she works from her garden studio. “I don’t remember a time when I didn’t want to create things. A day isn’t complete if I haven’t made something. So life is a balance of painting,

cooking, sewing, knitting and growing. I love the big questions of “What is art for?” and “What is life about? I find the answers in the beat of nature and find solace trying to live simply. My art

stems from these simple acts of living.”

Ian Winstanley Love on the Horizon Reverse Limed White Silver Frame. Double Mount with V Groove.

After college, Ian Winstanley developed his

early career in Birmingham working for one of

the top photographic studios. He was exclusively

involved in the advertising and design industries,

but later found fine art based work with the help

of Private View, a London artist’s agency.

Ian’s work philosophy is to approach an image

like a designer would and draw inspiration

from all areas of art. The ability to channel such

information in a particular direction without

destroying the initial energy needs a disciplined

sensitivity. ‘My images should maintain a delicate

balance between the natural and the refined

– a mixture of the intentional and the arbitrary.’

Now In his thirties, Ian Winstanley has his own

studio and is proving to be one of England’s

leading fine art photographers.

photography just as much as he loves taking portraits or still-lifes.

Daniel Del Orfano Endless Goodbye Bronze Spoon Frame. Double Mount with V Groove.


Daniel Del Orfano Spontaneous Bronze Spoon Frame. Double Mount with V Groove.

Born and raised on Long Island, New York, Daniel Del Orfano decided to stay close to his roots and attend Dowling College in Oakdale, NY. There he received his BFA in Art Education

and was teaching full time by the Autumn of 2001. Though extremely rewarding, this was not his true calling and it was at this time that Daniel decided to divert his attention from

teaching art to creating art, allowing him to expand his horizons creatively.

As demand for commissioned work increased, Daniel began developing his expressive style, implementing techniques that emphasized texture over realism. Though the work depicted

realistic scenes, the effects produced an almost ethereal feeling. The imagery began to take a back seat to the memory of which the image represented. Daniel Del Orfano’s work depicts

life, not as it may be, but more as it is remembered- a snapshot, not of a particular moment but of an overall memory.

James Paterson Paint Flat Brushed Deep White Frame. Double Mount.

Born in Darlington in 1977, James Paterson’s work is heavily influenced by nostalgic imagery as well as

his passion for art history. Alongside James’s very obvious influences found in Pop Artists like Larry Rivers,

Peter Blake and Richard Hamilton, more surprising influences like Whistler, Sargent and De Kooning and their love

of bold mark making play a big role. James likes to juxtapose detail with loose shapes to create definitive figures

and objects that are balanced with a constant reminder of the abstract.

Håkan Strand Empire State Building, New York City Matt Black Spoon Frame. Double Mount with V Groove and Black Inner.

Håkan Strand was born in 1959 and lives in Stockholm, Sweden. Most of

his black and white photography is done in low light situations where there

is an interaction between light and darkness, such as at dusk and dawn.

He often works with long exposures in order to reduce the landscape into

elemental, graphic shapes. He likes to work in bad weather: snowstorms, mist,

fog, or just under an endless dull and greyish sky. These conditions make the

perfect ingredients for his atmospheric and sometimes moody works.

Water is often present in his photographs, as are wide-open spaces and solitary

trees. He likes to simplify, to extract unnecessary elements in order to emphasize

the subject he is working with.

Håkan Strand’s award winning photographs have been featured in several

exhibitions and international magazines.

David Clapp River Seine Infrared, Paris Reverse Limed White Silver Frame. Double Mount with V Groove.

David Clapp is a landscape and travel photographer who never expected to be. An avid musician, he learned the creative language through guitar and

sequencing software, making his transition to cameras and Photoshop seem almost second nature. Forever attempting to push the boundaries as technology

unfolds, his technique and technical abilities speak for themselves through the complex work he produces. ‘For me, photography will always be the marriage

of computers and cameras. Technology and creativity has always been a constant source of fascination and my vision has always taken a rather elliptical orbit,

between day / night / landscape / architecture / travel. I can’t define exactly what it is I do, so I do them all.’

David divides his time between business and creativity - He works for numerous magazine titles, as well as amassing a strong position in commercial architectural

photography and as a inspirational lecturer and workshop leader.

Sarah Stokes Missy in Motion Bronze Spoon Frame. Double Mount with Black Inner.

Sarah Stokes is an artist from Wolverhampton where she lives with a her dogs Neville and Bear.

Painting mainly animals, she specialises in watercolour and loves the intensity and luminosity of its colours

and the unpredictability of the medium “I try and breathe new life into this medium with a more vibrant

colour palette adorned with splashes, splatters and dribbles”. The rush of excitement that Sarah gets

when she paints is reflected in her lively brushwork and colour blending.
