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.
Terry Sewell Terry Sewell
I'm a working-class Norfolk son The Barsham Boy, born 16th April 1955, in a time that many will be able to relate to. A time that to me stood still in the most captivating and inspiring era I now consider to have been the most incredible period of my life and an honour to have ever been part of growing up in, the sweet rural village of East Barsham to which I grew to love both its people and its mesmerising beauty both in nature and scenery. For 26 years I lived and grew to adulthood in this place so close to my heart which bears the fruit of the written words I write about inspired by my bittersweet journey through life. I began writing as young as five years old, in my early years I wrote mainly poetry but my ambition was always to hopefully become an established successful writer. As an infant growing up under the disciplinarian ways of my heartless father who used to beat me and call me useless, writing became an escape for me and a way of finding happiness and a purpose for living. Once I left the family fold at 26 years of age I had to work all my life for a living to make ends meet for my own wives and family. My writing suffered a lot and I became frustrated that I could never seem to find the time to achieve all I wanted in the subject. However, whenever I could I wrote both poetry and short stories and loved those moments of peace and tranquility so much but as hard as I tried I couldn't find an agent or publisher. Just over six years ago I decided it was now or never to publish my work, it was not quite how I had hoped but at least my work was finally out there for people to read by independently publishing stories myself. Since doing this I have met some lovely people through being invited to local schools, libraries, and events to do author talks, workshops, and book signings to which was so exciting. I am now retired loving the time I have left to write everything I have always wanted, currently writing my new thriller The Bride, Lady Leaves, and a children's book entitled The Curse of Karlevil. Whether I am ever lucky enough to obtain an agent and publisher or not I will continue to write out of love for the written word which has comforted me so much throughout my life from the heart until I'm unable to write anymore. But at least by then, I would have given it a dam good try.

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.

""Artists are just children who refuse to put down their crayons.""
― Al Hirschfeld
Canadian/Portuguese Award Winning graphic designer with a wide and ecletic creative range of interests, that covers film editing, digital art, photography (street, architecture, food).
On the design field my strengths are editorial, branding marketing and photography. Also with a Journalist degree and 20 years of experience on the area between radio host book reviewer and article cultural critic writting.
Graduated in 2019, soon after Covid strikes, that's why most of my work there isn't so much design in it, since Covid difficultied getting into the area in Canada.
Still all this samples show other creative fields I love to explore.
I don't have a particular style and I am too ecletic and experimental to be put on one creative box. Am easy adaptable and fast learner always interested in exploring the thin boundary, where design it's art and art it's design.
Moving to Scotland next year, if anyone knows about the creative job market there I really need some guidance.

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.

My journey began with Phoenix Youth Academy, where I learnt how to improvise and choreograph, expanding my practise, and improving my confidence within the contemporary style. I am currently interested in contemporary art and how I can link the visual of art to my dance practise. I have 2 years teaching experience (teaching ages 4-13) in acrobatics and contemporary, and in 2023, achieved my AcrobaticArts module one teaching qualification with 100%.

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.

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.

Poems, short-stories, critical essays, journals, articles, theatre scripts and reviews - I write and read them all. Being an unconventional writer has not been a hiderence to my career development, I have had the pleasure of working as an academic researcher, marketing intern, workshop facilitator programme participant and assistant producer during my studies, too.
My greatest achivement has been being able to set up my Creative Writing workshop platform for aspiring writers across London, nos: Creative Writing. At nos: Creative Writing, I faciliate workshops on different writing techniques, share inspiring writing materials and offer free 1-2-1 feedback on the devlopment of participant's personal writing projects. An enthusiastic supporter of everything literary and creative, I look forward to growing my platform and reaching greater audiences as I have many plans and projects I would like to fulfil in this collaborative space.

Arminta Vagryte
Hey, 👋🏼 my name is Arminta and I am 19 years old. Currently, I am studying at Vilnius University, Lithuania Psychology course.
From a really young age, I was fascinated by movies and visual content. I love how filmmakers tell stories and are capable of transferring emotions to the other side of the screen. I believe that movies are not just for killing free time... Movies form personalities, draw attention to serious and important social problems and also impart pleasure while watching.
For this reason, I started creating some visual content myself. 🤗 Hope you will enjoy it 👀!
I know that I am just a beginner, but I have so much motivation, desire, and enthusiasm to move forward, learn, and try myself in different situations.
I would be so excited and grateful to participate in some kind of events that you are suggesting or joining an internship to become a part of beautiful project creation. 🎬
