Beverley Coldron
Hi i am a mature student at the university of East London Docklands studying my BA in fine art. Ive just completed my first year of the degree and in September will be entering into the second year. I graduate in 2023 and then wish to progress to be an art teacher so i have to do teacher training. Im creating work all the time and would really like to ve able to find an audience out there so I can put the proceeds to obtaining more art supplies and possibly helping a charity. I am 60 years old and was not able to work before or get any qualification because i was always sick, but since finding faith seven years ago I have been healed and have achieved five GCSEs in 2017 and 2018. I then went to the City of Westminster College at Paddington Green in 2018 and acheived a distinction in UAL level 1 art design and media. In 2019 i started studying my BA fine arts with the foundation year and i love every single thing we learn about.
I have also just recently been taking an online NVQ2 course about mental health in children and teenagers because i thought that it would be useful and i have been told that both papers have been passed and sent for verification but it will take 12 weeks to get the certificate. The exam is equivalent to 4-5 GCSEs.
This year i have also been entering some virtual exhibitions and artprizes but later in the year and early next year im hoping to enter real life exhibitions.
I am already entered in the Happenstance artprize and their exhibition starts in August. I know that i may not stand much if a chance of winning any of the artprizes but have as much chance of competing as the next artist and it is all experience that i would not get if i didn't bother trying.
Caroline Lenon
Caroline is complex. The singer, song-writer and producer based in London is ready to show her audience how versatile she is in 2020. Her power to make people cry, laugh, and heal is what makes her unique and is one to watch for.
Caroline released her first ever single “Like That” in 2020. She described “Like That” as having an immediate connection with someone. The connection is so strong that you are drawn to them in a way that you have never felt before. The connection develops over time and you just like that feeling. Like that does not have an explicit lyrics but it does not abandon the sexiness that it brings to the listeners. Caroline gave hints on how to please her and emphasised the importance of taking things slow.
Caroline then dropped “No competition (freestyle)” where she expressed her frustrations about people who constantly drained her energy. She reached her limit and can no longer tolerate this type of energy so she needed to release all that anger and frustrations which led her in creating this masterpiece. “This song emphasis that I am not in competition with anyone. I run my own race and I am focus on improving myself. This song is made to encourage everyone that whatever life throws at them, they just have to stay focus and motivated. Remove all the negative energy, cut off all the toxic people and focus on their grind. Everyone is unique and different, there’s no need to compete. We will all make it in the end.”

Ruth Breen
I am a colourist visual artist inspired by nature, particularly flowers. I am a self-taught artist, and I live in Staffordshire Moorlands, I originally lived in London. I use acrylic paints as my main medium. My paintings are bright and vibrant. I am in the Neurodiversity spectrum as I am dyslexic, which means I am a dyslexic thinker and have an ability to think outside the box. I also have physical disabilities, and I am unable to use a standing easel as I cannot stand for long periods, so I prefer to paint downwards using a table. I have found I engage with acrylic paints as they can produce the bright colours I see in nature, particularly flowers which are my main inspiration. My work has been described as arts and crafts, mixed with pop art and impression. I have been told my paintings make people smile, which is a wonderful reaction to get from your artwork. I am currently creating a series 10 paintings for a pop-up exhibition

Tom Partridge
I'm a graphic designer in my final year of secondary school, originally being from Walthamstow, now based around Norwich. My work is largely centered around designing alternate/concept album covers for pre-existing albums, which I display on my Instagram - @phonyericsson. From getting noticed on Instagram for my album cover concepts, I've had the opportunity to designed covers and track listings for up-and-coming artists, a few examples being: Namani, $ebbuku & Jake Laud.
As well as desiging music related pieces, I also work on my own briefs to add to my portfolio, such as my "The Art of Noise" project, my short, experimental animation "ERICSSON7" and I'm currently working on a new, self-set brief called "Society90".
Growing up going to the Tate Modern, music festivals, walking around London seeing endless street art, plus my Dad being a graphic designer/painter and Mum being a writer, I have always been immersed in the Arts, especially music and design.
My plan is to start building a more solid brand to work on, possibly selling t-shirts, stickers, posters etc. I hope new opportunities arise in the future and I can create a career based in the Arts with more promotion and support.

Bob Grant
I am a recently graduated artist whose creative journey began in the vibrant streets of Manchester. After earning my Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Leeds, I have quickly gained attention for my distinctive approach to contemporary painting and mixed media. My work often explores themes of identity, urban life, and the interplay between memory and reality, blending bold colours and textured layers to evoke emotion and dialogue.
My final year exhibition was praised for its innovative use of reclaimed materials and subtle social commentary. I am passionate about community engagement and frequently volunteer for local arts programmes, believing in the power of creativity to inspire change. As I embark on my professional practice, I am eager to collaborate with fellow artists and develop my portfolio, aspiring to contribute to the British art scene with fresh perspectives and meaningful connections.

Elizabeth Middleton
Hello! My name is Lizzie Middleton and I love photography. I have been interested in it from the start of secondary school, taking part in a few sessions and photoshoots in school and out of school with friends and classmates, but only really properly got into it when I chose photography as an A level at sixth form. When I had my first lesson I knew that I wanted to persue photography in the future and I have been working towards that goal ever since. I mainly just do photoshoots with friends at the moment, but I can't wait to start shooting new models. My goal is to move to London in the near future, either doing photography as a job, or doing it at university. I "specialise" in portrait photography, as I love the emotion that can be shown through the face and body, but I am starting to get into fashion photography, as fashion and textiles is also a passion of mine. I love that there are no rules and no two photos can be the same. I hope you enjoy my photos!
Lina Vourlou
I am a moving image and installation artist playing with the physicality of colour and exploring metaphysical theories around reality. Fascinated by the similarities between the micro and macro cosmos, my work consists of vast masses of colour abstraction which entail transient and ambivalent forms that are left open to viewers' perceptions.
Collaborating with various music artists, I have created immersive installations for multiple music events at a number of art spaces in Nottingham.
I am an NTU Fine Art graduate actively looking for exciting job and/or collaboration opportunities where people can englulf themselves in my other-worldly, psychedellic imagination.
Cam Fitzhugh
I have always considered myself to be a creative person. Most of my time was spent creating videos or formulating short stories and film scripts in my younger and formative years. Having grown up immersing myself in film and TV, writing or creating my own, I felt, was a fantastic way to feel involved within an industry I deeply admired. This same admiration led me to complete an MA in ‘Writing for Performance and Publication’ at the University of Leeds. Beyond my love for script creation, my time on the course also allowed me to gain vital experience within every sphere of filmmaking, whether filming, editing or even acting, whilst also allowing me to grow and develop my craft as a screenwriter.
Since finishing my MA I have held copywriting positions at various digital marketing companies, however, I still seek to get involved within the creative industry in any way I can. Be it script writing, editing, producing, directing or even starring, I crave the environments that will enable to gain invaluable insight and experience within the industry I admire.
Ryan Boultbee
‘For me, Ryan’s work had an after effect; when the everything came down, the space was transformed into a kind of ready-made,
so his work changed my experience of every show that followed.’
His creative process is led by an exploration of materials, often found in the building he's exploring. He works in a space related to the built environment, but different from it;
tinting the viewer’s experience and prompting their imagination. Ryan's actions encourage a different way of seeing by inviting the viewer to investivate
beneath the surface of an experience.

Kiera Harmer
Hi! I'm Kiera Harmer, multidisciplinary fine artist and musician.
On Creative Portal, I am promoting my graphic design and illustration commercial work.
I am a curious, introspective, conceptual fine artist dedicated to the ‘art is life’ mantra. Originally driven to create subversive art, the phenomenology of creativity has become an imperative discussion in my sketchbooks. In fine art I am submerged in the overwhelming freedom to exercise methods, rituals, and processes in order to find profound ‘Truths’, via Art that is also pedalled by Music and Sexuality.
The graphic design, illustration, and commercialism surface as artefacts from the realms of my Art. Each accessible and commercial piece comes from a soulful concept. The designs are malleable and I believe can be applied to many different products and businesses.

Prith Paramsothy
Art’s always been a passion of mine from a young age, with portraiture being my favourite. I find drawing people so interesting, especially when I'm drawing on the go, in a bar or on the train. You get to see different walks or life, features, styles, and to this day even with my digital work I’m inspired by what I see on the street.
A lot of my work throughout the years have been inspired by pop culture, music and lyricism. I’ve also taken an interest in fashion over time, and am slowly learning how to animate.
