MEET THE ARTISTS - Jonathan Lawes is an artist and designer based in south east London, experimenting predominantly with the silkscreen printing process. Jonathan creates prints with a distinctly graphic edge, reflecting his love of geometry, shape, and pattern. He has a keen eye for nuance and layering, paying close attention to colour and detail. - Born and raised under the purple skies and scruffy trees of rural Scotland; Illustrator, painter and art director Katy Smail’s expressive florals and dreamy portraits have been used across homewares, stationary, publishing and fashion. - Artist and Printmaker, Luiza Holub’s works exhibit a fascination with still life. She uses the handmade process of traditional linocut printmaking techniques, creating work that is contemporary with a nod to the traditional. - Based near the beautiful Cotswold town of Stroud, still life painter Molly Benson draws inspiration from objects and fabrics found within her own home. Her compositions combine rich colours and block print patterns, resulting in maximalist paintings. - Buckinghamshire based Sharan Ranshi discovered her love for fashion illustration during her time at Central St.Martins studying fashion and print design. Her work has now evolved into hand drawn and painted portraits, celebrating the diversity and mish mash of identity through colour and print. - Infinitely inspired by nature, Sonal Nathwani's signature abstract florals embrace the power of colour, a free spirit and the beauty of imperfection. Experiencing this mix of cultures and diverse environments has enriched and shaped her view of the world and taught her to see beauty in the ordinary.
