Bonnie is a multidisciplinary artist working primarily in oils. She likes to paint surreal, colorful landscapes with figurative characters inspired by mythology and pop culture. Her favorite stage of working is the beginnings of a painting.

Nancy-Violet is an interdisciplinary fine artist, working in textiles, painting, clay, installation and performance. Her work explores the themes of ecofeminism, spirituality and the inner child, considering parallels between the way we interact with earth and gender structures in societies, reclaiming connection with the organic world as a woman, and how these practices enrich our lives spiritually.

Playing and connecting with my art work is the best feeling as an artist, and it makes me so happy when I can encourage other people to do this too.

Most of Thomas's art conceptualizes the story ideas he comes up with. His favorite traditional medium is oils but usually uses Procreate. Painting is a calm, therapeutic activity for Thomas.

Jack is an eclectic artist based in Devon that is obsessed with drawing. He loves exploring the many facets of visual expression. His inspiration can come from anything in life's random and vast sensory experience but mostly other humans and the emotions that haunt us.

I'm really nervous...

Leopoldo's art explores cinematic grotesqueness through the depictions of Argentine mythology and family. He is fascinated by artistic interpretations of the human condition because it translates thoughts into a figure we can see and touch.

I am beyond grateful that I was selected to battle and I can't wait to show you what I got!

Hi audience, I am Andy of AndyKnillArt Studio in Swanage (just me really). I am 59, a retired geography teacher who took up art in 2015 and am self taught - for the event I will be drawing in Posca acrylic markers.

My motto is ‘Art for Fun’ and I will come wearing one of my hand drawn outfits and pith helmets.

Please cheer me on, feedback welcomed and if you would like to draw with me at another point I offer a free drawing activity using my ProMarker collection at my studio (ask for details).

I have never done an event like this so looking forward to the challenge.

Thanks

Andy
