Reuben Colley Reuben Colley’s paintings are serious but far from solemn, indeed, they are full of a sense of wander; even joy.
Having built an international reputation for his urban landscape paintings of both Birmingham and London and having had numerous sell out exhibitions in both cities over the past 15 years, Colley opened his own gallery in 2010 to show not only his own
work but that of likeminded artists.
Rick Garland Rick Garland studied at Gemini, one of the premier illustration colleges in Europe. His four year training course was very much in the tradition of the old masters. The first year focussed entirely on black and white drawing allowing him to fully understand tonal
values.
With collectors all over the world for his photo realist paintings, the demand means that they sell very quickly. The pieces included in this catalogue are the only original paintings by this artist that are currently available in the UK.
Tony Karpinski Tony Karpinski began painting and drawing at the age of 4 ½ receiving art prizes every year of his school life. He went on to study
the techniques of the great masters such as Rembrandt and Rubens.
Over the past 20 years Tony has built up an international reputation as one of the UK’s leading photo realist artists. His paintings have been sold in galleries, at art fairs and auction houses throughout the world.
Mircea Teleaga Mircea Teleaga was born in Radauti, Romania and is currently based at The Slade School of Art in London. His paintings explore
the history of certain places without the use of a narrative. The abstracted landscapes bear clear marks of their past, avoiding a very self explanatory approach, he intends to show distortions or scars in these landscapes.
Mircea has been selected for a scholarship from The Sarabande Foundation who are there to ensure that the creative talent of gifted artists and designers can flourish. Over 20 years ago the idea for a charitable foundation was born out of the creativity and experience of the late Alexander McQueen who passionately believed that young creative minds with the potential to push
boundaries and overturn prevailing orthodoxies should be given the same opportunities he’d enjoyed.
James Byrne James Byrne is a Birmingham painter who has had a studio practice in the city since completing an M.A. in painting in 1982. His
work has been included in a number of important shows in the UK and Hong Kong and his paintings are included in The Warwick Arts Trust permanent collection as well as Birmingham Museum and IBM Collection.
In 2014 James Byrne painting ‘Book’ as exhibited in the John Moores Painting Prize at The Walker Art Gallery, Liverpool.
Annette Pugh Annette Pugh uses a diverse range of media to investigate the point at which, and how, a photograph becomes more than just a
copy. She sources imagery from a range of archives and often references subjects and locations which are at once both familiar and yet anonymous.
