| "Row Row Row Regatta By Clare Halifax" |
| "Clare Halifax is an artist who understands the beauty of print making. Using highly skilled processes, with an impressive talent for illustration, Halifax creates prints of rich and meticulous detail, with design, pattern and colour playing crucial roles in the overall aesthetic. Halifax takes inspiration from her immediate surroundings, drawing on places of special significance from her own life to create graphic landscapes filled with vibrancy and character. ‘Row Row Row Regatta’ depicts the Henley Royal Regatta in full swing. A long, pastel yellow rowing boat moves through the water, manned by 8 rowers, sporting emerald green uniforms. Both sky and river are rendered in a grey geometric pattern, which contrasts against the illustrative style of the scenery. Large trees line the river bank and the spectator’s striped marquee can be seen, filled with tiny people, some picked out in red, blue and pink. There is a stillness to the image - despite the depiction of a dynamic moment - which lends a thoughtful tone and a gentle, beautiful aesthetic."

A sea of deckchairs dominate the image, their ‘HRR’ emblazoned backs turned towards the viewer. All are empty, like a ghost ship of spectators, while rowers are at work on the river. Dark trees impose on the horizon line, beneath a grey sky made up form a repeated geometric pattern. The muted tones of the image - greys, greens and white - along with the empty deckchairs, lend a stillness to the print, which is both thoughtful and beautiful: a triumph of contemporary print making."

| "Clare Halifax is an artist who understands the beauty of print making. Using highly skilled processes, with an impressive talent for illustration, Halifax creates prints of rich and meticulous detail, with design, pattern and colour playing crucial roles in the overall aesthetic. Halifax takes inspiration from her immediate surroundings, drawing on places of special significance from her own life to create graphic landscapes filled with vibrancy and character. ‘Kings College, Cambridge’ has a foreboding tone: the black trees are bare; the imposing college - stretched across the print - is a dull grey; and both river and sky are made up from a design resembling blue birds in flight. There is real beauty in the austerity of the image, capturing the darkest moment of English wintertime in a way which is both romantic and bewitching. The perspective is near impossible, a panoramic that couldn’t quite be captured by the eye, but that is where the charm lies: though detailed and accurate, Halifax’s work refuses rigidity and strict realism, favouring an artistic fluidity, which allows her unique style to shine."

Halifax takes inspiration from her immediate surroundings, drawing on places of special significance from her own life to create graphic landscapes filled with vibrancy and character. ‘Mathematical Bridge, Cambridge’ is a triumph of colour and composition. The image is dominated by the river, which Halifax has rendered in a soft blue, repeated pattern, almost resembling Morris wallpaper. The top section of the print shows the bridge, with foliage behind, all left in sketchy monochrome. Rowers are active on the water, their boats - like the railings of the bridge - picked out in a shade of orange that harmonises beautifully with the blue of the water. The perspective is not quite possible - slightly skewed for the eye - but that is where the charm lies: though detailed and accurate, Halifax’s work refuses rigidity and strict realism, favouring an artistic fluidity, which allows her unique style to shine."

Halifax takes inspiration from her immediate surroundings, drawing on places of special significance from her own life to create graphic landscapes filled with vibrancy and character. ‘St Michael’s Mount’ shows the impressive Cornish island, rising out of the water, the castle visible at its peak. The image is dominated by sea and sky, both of which Halifax has rendered in a geometric blue pattern, which contrasts well against her illustrative style. The verdure of the island had been coloured in deep green but Halifax has left the rest of the print - all of the man made objects (boats, buildings, streets and walls) - in simple black ink. There is a beautiful, sketchy quality to the ink-drawn sections, and Halifax has artfully captured the sleepy character of the little Cornish island. A real triumph of colour and composition ‘St Michael’s Mount’ showcases contemporary print making at its best."

Halifax takes inspiration from her immediate surroundings, drawing on places of special significance from her own life to create graphic landscapes filled with vibrancy and character. ‘Sennen Cove’ depicts the little cove, its fishing boats moored on the beach with a rough sea raging in the background. The print has the feel of an Edward Ardizzone drawing, only Halifax’s detail is more rigorous, her palette a little more subdued, for artistic effect. There is a real power in the image, a stillness in the lifeless boats, even as the tumultuous sea hovers nearby. Thoughtful, beautiful and unique, ’Sennen Cove’ is a triumph of contemporary print making."

Using highly skilled processes, with an impressive talent for illustration, Halifax creates prints of rich and meticulous detail, with design, pattern and colour playing crucial roles in the overall style. Halifax has produced a series of a-z animal prints, using textiles to create a picture book aesthetic. With an impressive eye for colour and composition, the animal series merges art and design, incorporating typography, texture and graphics to stunning effect. ‘B is for Bear’ depicts a large brown bear, stood against a tall tree trunk. The background is made up of soft green stitching to create a dense, textured forest. The square print is framed by a black and white triangular stitch pattern with the words ‘B is for Bear’, in black sans serif font, skimming the bottom of the image. The tapestry effect, transformed into print, is striking, and the combination of playful naivety and artistic technique produce a truly beautiful aesthetic."

| "Rob Wass is an artist who understands the majesty of the natural world. His prints centre around landscapes, birds and butterflies, balancing exceptional colour palettes with soft texture and careful composition. ‘Crow’ depicts, quite simply, a large crow in flight. The print’s sheer simplicity is where its strength lies: using lashings of black ink against swathes of deep purple, Wass has created the sublime bird - stark against a white background - out of an experimental application of paint, simulating all the drama and vulnerability of a Rorschach test. The bird, in this way, appears organic, despite - or because of - Wass’s mastery of artifice. Bold and beautiful, ‘Crow’ reimagines the natural world onto the canvas with bewitching style."

| "A Little Piece of Peace and Quiet By Carne Griffiths" |
| "Contemporary artist Carne Griffiths creates prints of stunning beauty, from his abstract-meets-figurative vision. With an impressive roll-call of clients - from Chanel to the Sultan of Oman - Griffiths’ work is informed by his background as a gold wire embroidery designer: delicate lines of fluidity course through his work, which he creates from various (and sometimes surprising) materials, including ink, graphite, brandy and whiskey. ‘A Little Piece of Peace and Quiet’ uses an array of dynamic lines, shapes and colours to create the face of a woman in profile. Crafted from a palette of earthy browns and sky blues, the print is full of careful detail: a striking example of the abstract shading into the figurative, and a truly beautiful piece to behold."

| "Calf By Charming Baker" |
| "If contemporary artist Charming Baker can count Damien Hirst amongst his fans, there can be no doubt that this is a man of great talent. But don’t just take Hirst’s word for it: Baker’s esoteric prints can do all the talking, with their offbeat subjects, extraordinary execution and unique aesthetic. His work is best known for its relationship with destruction: Baker often damages his pieces by drilling, cutting, occasionally shooting at, and often defacing them in some way, to question the precious valuation of art in contemporary culture. ‘Calf’ depicts a rough but detailed sketch of a young cow, rendered in heavy graphite strokes against a white background. Baker has mixed up mediums by painting thick, golden-coloured lines, that intersect across the calfs body, like coils of rope. The layered materials clash in a way that confounds expectation, as the lines of abstraction, pasted onto the figurative sketch, transform the traditional image. It’s not an easy image to read but, like Hirst says, “who cares? Charming Baker’s paintings are great.”"

| "Le Whistle Prancer By Carl Moore" |
| "Digital artist Carl Moore produces an aesthetic like no other: revelling in the uncanny, Moore’s animal prints are an exercise in contemporary surreality, achieved to extraordinary success. Merging the playful with the tragic, the absurd with the endearing, Moore produces highly graphic images, bold in their colour and compositional technique. ‘Le Whistle Prancer’ depicts a chestnut-brown carousel horse, decked out in colourful trappings: a cherry-red saddle, sky-blue sashes, a green bridle and colourful flowers in its mane. The horse’s hooves, legs and tail fade away into long drips of paint, as though the freshly made image has been left to run. ‘Le Whistle Prancer’ is oozing in surrealist style, loosely reminiscent of Dali, with its melting motif, but with a strong graphic sensibility and an iconic intensity."

| "Love Bomb By Louise Dear" |
| "Louise Dear is, in her own words, “a painter with a simple ambition…to create beautiful paintings.” Her ambition may be simple but her work is far from it: Dear creates her paintings through a plethora of methods, throwing, rubbing and pouring materials onto the canvas before distressing the work for an organic aesthetic, rich with spirit and brimming with beauty. Inspired by Japanese art - both antiquated and contemporary - Dear’s work is driven by colour, and the way in which it invades the senses, and her palettes are always intense and extreme, to electrifying effect. ‘Love Bomb’ depicts a shirtless man - only his head and torso visible - looking seductively out of the print, a pink grenade clasped in his hand. The image is backed by bright, rainbow-coloured stripes, delicately adorned with a floral design. ‘Love Bomb’ is both a playful and beautiful celebration of gay culture, a subject to which Dear’s colourful aesthetic is brilliantly and poignantly attuned."

| "Trust in Me By James Bates" |
| "Contemporary artist James Bates finds inspiration in the most unlikely of places: from junk shops to Disney films, scrap-heaps to sketch books, Bates’ wide artistic scope is reflected in his multi-media art pieces, which range from illustration to animation, advertising to graphic design. Unsurprisingly, Bates’ aesthetic is singular: his prints are bold and fearless, mindful of composition and colour in a striking way. ‘Trust In Me’ - taking its title from the hypnotic Jungle Book number - depicts a large, metallic gold snake, weaving across the surface of the print. Bates’ eye for graphic design is exemplified in the piece, which is a patchwork quilt of shape and texture: circles, squares, stripes, arrows, and spirals make the composite elements of the reptile, as hypnotic in their busy formation as Ka’s infamous tune. ‘Trust In Me’ is a truly striking work of art: a statement piece to hang in the home and lift any space."

A black, metallic surface is laced with a series of interconnecting white lines, crossing and diverging to create an intricate network of geometric shapes. The print is at once busy and sparse, abruptly minimal in its use of monochrome and two-dimensional perspective. ‘Dance To the Radio’ is a truly striking work of art: a statement piece to hang in the home and lift any space."

A graduate from The London College of Fashion and shoe designer for the likes of Madonna, Kylie and Fergie, Carvalho creates outlandish, brightly coloured prints that centre around the iconic (be that the Hermès Birkin Bag or the Queen herself). Carvalho’s stylish prints are conceived through a range of media, including screen-printing, photography and digital art, to create an utterly desirable aesthetic. ‘Birkin Bill’ brings together two icons in this pop-art-meets-fashion print: the Birkin Bag has been faithfully reproduced in one dollar bills, against a flat, grey background. To finish the look, the edges of the bag have been fuzzed with Ben-Day dots to make Lichtenstein proud. It’s loud and brash, while disarmingly minimal, in a way that works to striking effect."

Her work is perfectly attuned to colour and compositional technique, achieving an illusion of naivety through exceptional talent and uncompromising skill. ‘Seaside Gallery 1’ beautifully blends the abstract with the figurative, creating a scene from geometric shapes and sharp, angled lines. The focal point of the print is a large painting, hanging on the wall of an art gallery. People stand around, talking and perusing the space, dwarfed by the large, abstract canvas, which depicts different coloured blocks, stacked haphazardly on top of each other. Blake’s print has boundless appeal: its strength lies not only in the magnetic charge of the bright palette and clean composition, but in the Chinese box quality of art depicting art. It’s a smart piece, provoking questions about the nature of art through a nuanced naivety and a stunning aesthetic."
