Hannah Luxton graduated from the Slade School of Fine Art, London in 2012. During her time there she received the Betty Malcolm Scholarship for Stage and Decorative Painting, and the fine art bursary awarded by the Worshipful Company of Painter-Stainers. Recent public commissions include the City of London Festival and The 500 music festival.
Hannah’s artistic enquiries are rooted in the Romantic notion of portraying divinity through nature. She juxtaposes the definitive qualities of geometry against the indeterminable qualities of weather, light and space.

Harry Malt was born in the fine mustard city of Norwich in Delia Smith’s county of Norfolk. He studied dub records, vodka redbulls and drawing pictures at Camberwell College of Arts. Since leaving there in 2001, a fear of office spaces forced him to work freelance as an illustrator, occasional artist, writer and film maker. His interests outside of working include shotguns, Gueze Boon and gill nets. He can be found in the Jolly Sailors pub in Brancaster Staithe, Norfolk.
He is still working on his website.

Paul Westcombe was born in Inverness and studied painting at Grays School of Art, RGU, Aberdeen, and the Royal College of Art, London.
Paul’s recent work deals with the fantasy worlds of the imagination and human desire as a means of alleviating boredom and confinement (a project he started to relieve the tedium of 12-hour shifts working as a car park attendant).
His exhibitions include, ‘Just Food for the Midgies’ (Jerwood Café, 2009), ‘The Symbols Pursue Me’ (The Liverpool Biennial, 2010) and his work was included in the ‘London Open’ (Whitechapel Gallery, 2012). In addition his work is also in the Saatchi collection and is due to be part of the forthcoming show ‘Paper’.
He was awarded The Royal Scottish Academy William Littlejohn Award 2011 and the HI-Arts Development Award 2011.
