Some artists biogs:-
Yanna Law
Born in Lincolnshire, Yanna Law presents a body of work defined by an uncompromising spirit of freedom. Her practice serves as a rhythmic intersection between abstract expressionism and surrealism, where bold colour palettes are harnessed to map the complexities of the human soul. Through a "wild" and intuitive process, Law transforms the canvas into a visceral exploration of emotion and subconscious thought.

Iain MacLeod-Brudenell
Working across 2D and 3D planes, this multi-media artist navigates the intersection of Artists’ Books, ceramics, and printmaking. Their practice is defined by a tactile, intuitive process—an immediate response to whatever "comes to mind or hand"—resulting in a body of work that spans from the intimate to the monumental.
Central to their inquiry is The Body in all its complexities: the tension between the internal and external, and the visceral reality of hidden medical narratives. Through the lens of the palimpsest, the work explores layers of history and biology, questioning what remains concealed and what is eventually revealed. Having exhibited both nationally and internationally, the artist continues to challenge the boundaries of scale and visibility.

TINA HAZELL
Tina Hazell’s practice exists at the intersection of biological enquiry and ethereal abstraction. Her work takes its cues from the hidden topographies of microscopic imagery, transforming complex scientific data into a weightless, immersive visual language. While her research is rooted in the clinical precision of medical informatics—where colour is often used to demarcate pathology—Hazell’s paintings transcend the diagnostic to explore the "random and unique patterns" that emerge when organic structures begin to break down.
In these works, orientation is discarded and focal points remain fluid. Through a process of elective response and layered application, Hazell replaces the clinical replica with a felt sense of the subject. She employs pouring and stencilling techniques to create an organic texture, allowing pigment to move freely across the canvas, unconstrained by the rigid boundaries of biology.
Ultimately, Hazell’s work is an invitation to look beyond the effects of disease and engage with the inherent beauty of its forms. By distilling scientific sources into a suspension of diffused repetitions, she creates a space for personal emotional resonance, sparking an imaginative dialogue between the viewer’s own experiences and the fascinating, hidden structures of the human body.

JOHN TREVORROW
“Every time life pulls me down’ I know! A POGO will pull me up. Over the Wall”
Scottish artist and provocateur whose practice is inseparable from the visceral energy of the punk rock movement. Raised amidst the social and political friction of post-industrial Scotland, Trevorrow’s work serves as a gritty testament to the DIY ethos that defined his formative years.
His aesthetic is rooted in rebellion, weaving together a lifetime of alternative subculture and raw creative expression. By rejecting traditional methodologies in favour of unconventional materials and boundary-pushing techniques, Trevorrow challenges societal norms and explores the intersection of music, identity, and dissent. Each piece acts as both a visual disruption and a deep reflection of his roots, cementing his role as a vital voice in contemporary counter-culture art

Collection “Aren’t they Beautiful”
Aren’t they Beautiful 1

Aren’t they Beautiful 3
Size - A3 (29cm x 42cm) On Canvas’ Media - Digital
Here’s a little intro These beautiful figures aren’t performing rebellion! they are rebellion, wrapped in plaid & a pulse carved out of noise & motion. There’s also romance here, but not the delicate kind’ but the fierce lived-in reality kind, where defiance’ grace & freedom collide in mid-air. Each image is a love letter to expression without apology, where punk isn’t a style! it’s a heartbeat where red tartan becomes the banner of women who choose fire over silence.
Rosemary B Rollins.
( aka Anna Drdova In Czech)
Rosemary B Rollins is a Czech-born painter whose work is informed by rigorous Central European training and a cross-cultural perspective. She began her studies at the Glass School in Valašské Meziříčí before transitioning to fine art at the University of Ostrava, where she studied under the acclaimed academic leadership of Daniel Balabán and František Kowolowski. Her formative years also included a pivotal residency at the University of Art and Design in Cluj-Napoca, Romania.
Since 2006, Rosemary has maintained an active exhibition profile through both solo and group showcases. Now based in England since 2012, her practice continues to evolve, bridging the rich artistic traditions of her heritage with her contemporary British surroundings.

PAUL WINCHCOMBE
At 60, Paul Winchcombe remains a definitive voice of the punk ethos, translating raw energy into a provocative visual language. His work serves as a visceral reaction to the contemporary world, capturing the friction of modern life and the inherent absurdity of global governance. By distilling the "craziness" of the political landscape into bold artistic statements, Winchcombe challenges the viewer to confront the chaos that surrounds us.
The name of this piece is “God goons and old glory” (a dig at the state of America under Trump and his goons ice).

Eagle Spits
Eagle Spits is a "Wombal artist" dedicated to the art of reclamation. Working across 2D and 3D collage, they scavenge the urban landscape—streets, tips, and charity shops—for discarded canvases, vintage print, and weathered dolls. These forgotten fragments are meticulously assembled into works of an anarcho-spiritual nature.
For Spits, the medium of collage serves as a bridge to the subconscious. By moving away from ego-driven intent, the artist allows the materials to dictate their own rebirth. This practice is a literal turning of "swords into ploughshares," transmuting the debris of consumer culture into evocative, soulful artifacts.
MICHELLE WILL
A graduate of the prestigious Gray’s School of Art (1992), Michelle Will is a contemporary Scottish artist whose practice is a profound exploration of the natural world. Based in Aberdeenshire, Will’s work serves as a sensory bridge between the physical landscape and the emotional experience of place.
Specialising in atmospheric landscapes and seascapes, her paintings capture the fleeting, dramatic beauty of the Scottish coast and countryside. Her process is one of both observation and alchemy; she masterfully builds depth through layered pigments, often using techniques of scraping and dry-brushing to reveal hidden complexities of light and texture.
By merging traditional painterly techniques with modern digital experimentation, Will distills the raw energy of nature—shifting skies, rhythmic tides, and rugged horizons—into compositions that evoke a sense of quiet wonder. Her work invites the viewer to look beyond the surface, capturing not just a view, but the very essence and spirit of the wilderness.
