Amber Varney
I'm an 20 year old student studying Graphic communication at Norwich University of the Arts
I started my Instagram account for my work a little over a year ago and since then I have started an Etsy page and a website selling my work to various customers around the world. Since then, I have continued commissions alongside focusing on my degree.
Myself and my friend set up a fundraising/ charity organisation in Brighton which invites young creatives to paint and draw in various styles and with various mediums. One session had upwards of 20 participants, we observe social distancing of course. We then sell these pieces (one painting sold for £50!) and donate all proceeds go to local Brighton charity BMEYPP (black and minority ethnic young people's project).
I really would love to further my experience in the creative field by possibly doing an apprenticeship or internship alongside my degree to gain experience and put my skills to practice.

Hi I'm Nick, a passionate and creative individual looking to enter the creatives arts industry.

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.

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.

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

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.”
Mark Noble
Mark Noble is an English artist based in Somerset, UK. His works shine a new light on the under-valued aspects of the world in which we live. Often specialising in landscape paintings and abstract work, he infuses his worlds with a melancholic and spiritual beauty.
After a difficult time at school (dealing with autism and severe dyslexia) and spending nearly 20 years working in a local plastics factory, Mark set out to pursue his dream of becoming an artist. Inspired by the work of Turner, he expresses the mystical, dream-like and sublime, through delicate attention to the commonplace or overlooked.
Mark has exhibited paintings across the UK and Europe and has received interest from as far afield as South America. He is currently running art workshops to encourage those who, like him, have creative dreams yet to be fully realised.
Work was recently sold at a large exhibition in London (the OXO Gallery) to raise awareness of Parkinson’s Disease and paintings are on display in several other galleries around England. In March 2021, Mark became an ambassador for a charity called 'Outside In' – their aim is to assist and promote disabled artists. He is also busy working on private commissions, exhibiting, developing new ideas and getting children involved with art (one Lottery-funded project involved children painting a mural at a local school in Glastonbury).
Moving forward, Mark wants to promote environmentally friendly art as much as possible. His ‘Driftwood Collection’ features art painted on recycled materials such as old tiles, window frames, bark and even old coffee table tops!

― 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.

Charles Cheang
I’m a passionate creator and boundary-pusher, specializing in user experience and spatial design. With attentive communication skills and strong sketching skills, I craft spaces that prioritize people’s real needs. My work is driven by a passion to create environments that inspire, engage, and elevate the experience of all who encounter them.
I am very passionate about solving day-to-day problems and enhancing Human-Computer/AI Interaction to bridge the gap between the real world and virtual environments. In particular, I aspire to become a Product Designer, with a focus on XR, UX/UI, and AI, as I am keen to explore more creative possibilities, pursue professional growth, and expand my expertise in 3D modelling and virtual simulations within a more immersive environment, embracing imaginative, boundary-pushing design.
As a Landscape Architect, my designs are often constrained by physical spaces and real-world limitations, but XR enables more innovative and unrestricted creations. My passion for expanding my creative expression, combined with my skills in spatial design, environmental context, aesthetics, and user experience, makes me confident that I would be an ideal candidate to work for you.
