Rae-Sarah Weedon has had a lifelong love of art and creativity in all its forms: she won her first painting competition at the age of 5 and has been emerging ever since.
Having studied at Winchester School of Art for six years, she graduated with a First Class Honors Degree in Visual Art in 2007, then with distinction in Master of Fine Art in 2009. During her time at the University of Southampton she contributed to both post-graduate conference and a published research journal.
Rae-Sarah’s areas of interest are varied; from hyper-realism to transient concept, the basis of her personal practice is a desire to communicate shared issues of thought, memory, the symbolic logic of the individual and psychological concerns of relationships and the human condition. Her work has an ever-present, ethereal thread expressed through various media from detailed line works on paper to Video Art.
Ian Williams is a Contemporary Artist working with a range of media from paint, ink and paper to a variety of found objects in order to produce visually engaging originals and, occasionally, limited edition prints.
He had no formal art school training, opting instead to start his working life as a Russian linguist in the Royal Navy. However, Ian later went on to spend the majority of his career as a Creative Director, Writer and Producer within the film and television industry. He has won awards both in the UK and the United States for his work.
Ian is continually building his artistic practice. His work has been short-listed for the National Open Art competition 2-years running; he has sold work to private individuals and via a number of galleries; and was commissioned by Mike Weatherly, MP., to create two pictures of electric guitars - Rory Gallagher's beat-up Fender and Zakk Wylde's Les Paul - all very rock 'n' roll.
