ANITA ARBIDANE
Anita, What does inspires you?
The process of painting itself is inspiring to me. As I start to paint one image inspires the other and soon the mind is flooded with unexpected spins on the subject. I get my inspiration from the act of painting.
What do you usually like to paint?
Human figure is in the centre of my professional curiosity with its ever changing expressiveness it presents an endless challenge to a hard working artist. Study of the human body and portraiture is and probably will be a subject of my interest in art.
And What details do you care when you paint?
Painting is my private time. It is my comfort zone and it is very important for me to have quiet surroundings and professional tools to work with. The environment I work in is important to me.
Anna Rączka
Anna, what inspires you?
Music I listen to, the book I read, and the people around me. Sometimes one detail is enough to draw my attention and the adventure of a new painting begins.
What do you generally like to paint?
I like to paint that what is elusive, fleeting, delicate. I would like to show how much our thoughts affect the others to see us
And what details matter to you when you paint?
The whole picture is important to me, but I pay special attention to the eyes and lines around the head, sometimes they are regular and orderly, sometimes tangled. As our thoughts

MIRIAM ESCOFET
I have made still lifes, architecture and perspective, allegory, imaginary composition and, more recently, portraits. But in all my paintings there is a feeling of space, volume, atmosphere and detail, a kind of hyper-realistic expression.
My works are classically inspired but also feature accessories, elaborate models, and the use of a complex perspective.
My technique is extremely detailed, applying many layers and enamels to achieve that feeling of space and mood.
I consider paintings as portals :, worlds into which one enters visually and sometimes even be transformed. Unleash a moment of transcendence on the viewer, of amazement.
Maisie Broadhead
Maisie studied Three-Dimensional Craftsmanship at the University of Brighton, and also completed a Master's in Jewelry and Metal at the Royal College of Art 2009.
Maisie's work has been exhibited at major museum exhibitions, UK; , Spain; Australia; and Sweden.
It uses many materials and processes, often in a dialogue between the handmade object and the staged photographic images.
Maisie reinterprets historical painting and is concerned with exploring the strange, the illusion and the idea of "value". Through the use of contemporary and historical elements, his images are a link between the past and the present
Kit Williams
Kit Williams has worked as a figurative painter for the past 45 years and has published several books along the way.
He uses traditional oil painting techniques, first forming a wooden panel covered in linen and plaster. He uses many layers of opaque Dutch oil paint creating his highly luminous images
Kit Williams controls every aspect of the images, from the dresses the models wear, to the outfits and accessories, to photography, and often delighting in creating ingenious mechanisms that add another dimension to the image.
He has always made his own frames, his marquetry techniques allow him to make images in any way.
