Christopher Rainham: Chris loves painting;having a desire to communicate,
share ideas and influences. He uses the things that inspire him to
influence other people. Rarely knowing how a painting or drawing will look
when it is complete. Sometimes the things he can't control are his
favourite parts of the work. Passionate, libertine, evocative.

Michael Dalley: Michaels' latest mixed media UV compositions were the
progressive product of inspirational trips in the hedonist metropolis,
where the ecstatic energy of dance music creates an orgy of motion.
Intoxicating the senses, inspiring euphoric creativity, a neon feast for
the eye, transcopic illuminae.

Roy Carter: Born in North London, 1938 is a self taught Artist / Sculptor
working with various mediums, Marble being the primary one. Geoffrey
Bennison the Artist/Designer, and my mentor for many years, gave
me my leaning towards Architecture and Classical influences. Much
of my previous work is by commission. Some of my work is the ordinariness
that seems to pass through our lives unnoticed, but when featured
in another concept and material- it takes a step forward! Over
the past few years, I have begun to diversify into the wider realms
of colour and other mediums, opening up a new and untapped part
of myself.

Richard Heeps: Richard's photography
is both art and documentary. He has pursued a wide range of projects
with a superb eye for colour and composition, and a keen awareness
of the narrative behind the image. He is regularly exhibited at
home and abroad in some of the best art and photography galleries.
In his acclaimed work, he uses colour to create cool, descriptive
images. However, the sophisticated pictorial structures refuse
to descend into cloying nostalgia.

Susan Laughton: 'My work begins as a response to the light and weather of
the northern landscape: Moorland, urban sprawl, dereliction and
regeneration. I search for glimpses of poetic beauty in the changing
skies, rusting metal, power lines and peeling paint.'

Robin Eckardt: Her style lends itself to quite large canvases as this
allows Robin to fully explore the boundaries of a highly varied and
colourful palette of materials. She always uses mixed media in order to
create work that is completely different and exciting yet aesthetically
pleasing. The work is energetic and instinctive, which adds to the
dynamics of the painting and Robin's personal expression. The ultimate aim
is to leave the viewer with a sense of emotion and experience.

Helen Parsley: Helen specialises in dramatic landscape scenes and has been
heavily influenced by the many trips over the Snake Pass to her home town
of Sheffield. Following many trips to her favourite city of Paris, the
French impressionist artists have also influenced Helen, she loves to
create textures in her paintings bringing to life the landscapes. Together
with her exciting use of light, her paintings often look almost
photographic.

Hamilton and Ashrowan:
Fine Art -within new media. Their work has focused on two themes-moving
image landscape observation (most recently ' A Landscape Symphony',
2006) and large multi-screen digital installations (Threshold
Artspace' installation, 2005). They find that the medium of high
definition video offers them the creative possibility of experiencing
a deep and penetrating connection to the world they observe. Ruskin's
ideas on the nature of observation and on drawing have deeply
informed their work. Most recently they have completed a new work
from a filming trip to Norway and are working with The National
Galleries of Scotland and Dulwich Picture Gallery London in preparing
an exhibition that conveys the site of Ruskin portrait by Millais.
A Landscape Symphony in 22 Movements by Hamilton and Ashrowan
is currently showing at -The Ruskin Gallery at Cambridge School
of Art which is a department of Anglia Ruskin University until
the 18 October 2006. Hamilton&Ashrowan-the work for sale-The
Landscape Symphony in 22 Movements.
The artist's work is available as a framed LCD work - limited
edition of 5.
