I am interested in distortion. Through loose line work and flattened figures and shapes I create an abstracted representation of the world. In doing so I create a pathway to process the complexities of the human condition. I wonder about how the imagination processes experience, memory and shape into visual form. By taking a sideways look at life I challenge the viewer to question what we see as reality.

Ruth Waldron is an Irish artist living near Albi, Tarn France. After university she pursued her creative inclinations with a career in Interior Design for 17 years, working in both Ireland and the United Kingdom. In 2009 she moved to Shanghai, China. She spent two years with a Chinese tutor, working in particular on traditional ink and watercolour painting techniques. This disciplined and formal style of painting enriched her art with an exciting new perspective. She has a fascination for the colours and motifs in traditional Chinese and Japanese watercolours. Further to her experience in China she has completed the Creative Visionary Program (2018) with artist Nicholas Wilton. This course enabled Ruth to take her work and practice to a higher level. She now works in a more inquiring and intuitive manner. Ruth has a full time painting practice based at her studio in the south of France. She works on paper, wood board and canvas, using acrylic, watercolour, oil pastels and ink.   Education 1987-1992, Bachelors degree in Classics and Spanish Literature Trinity College Dublin 2009-2011 Private tutor in Chinese painting in Shanghai 2018 Completed The Creative Visionary Program with Nicholas Wilton (California)   Exhibitions   2019 art3f Toulouse, 2019 Art Salon Balma, Toulouse, 2020 Art Exhibition Albi, France.   About the postcard artworks   These postcard paintings are a small, but true representation of my current series which explores my fascination for Asian porcelain and also the use of space and a sense of calm in the traditional painting compositions of Chinese art. I use ink on paper collage elements in my work to add a layered and multi-textured finish to my work, which is as important to me as the subject matter or composition. I am influenced by Asian calligraphy and line which is evident in the collage elements. I try to use complex and multilayered methods to produce work that looks simple, spacious, unfussy and calm.

Michael Boffey Sacred Heart Study, 2021 Silver Gelatin on Paper Signed on verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) About Michael Boffey was born in Liverpool. Education He trained at Loughborough College of Art and Design (BA Hons 1994) and De Montfort University (MA with Distinction 1997). Exhibitions He has participated in exhibitions at Charlie Smith Gallery, Shoreditch, London, Victoria House, Bloomsbury Square, London, The Lion and Lamb Gallery, London, The Royal College of Art, and Cable Street Studios and Gallery, London   About the postcard artworks According to psychopathologists people's abiding tendency is to avoid confronting loss. Instead, they cherish it by refusing change and subject the relics that remain to endless emotional ransacking as a continuation of their own withdrawal. Imaged in the photographic paintings of Michael Boffey, remnants, here in the form of cut flowers, vases, clocks and other domestic and ornamental paraphernalia are not superfluities then. These works with their faded fancies, have been transformed through various nominal and procedural processes, both gentle and violent, to allow a meditation on reminiscence. The playing fields of memory contain a superabundance of richly complex accounts, sometimes embellished and sometimes faded. Apparently, nostalgia is a very bad thing, but despite benign advice about not looking back, we have little idea of what our world will be like in the future. It seems that coping with the fears and pleasures of now and with those of tomorrow does necessitate acknowledgement of a past. - Jean Taylor

They are all Japanese woodcut prints, printed with watercolour. I hope the imagery used can be seen as little icons: butterfly,buds, emerging head and small birch trees I have enjoyed making them .Simple as they appear they are all cut from wood with gouges and chisels and then printed by hand from watercolour brushed on the multiple blocks used to build up the layers. Each is a unique single print which I have carefully wrapped and pasted around the post cards.

Michael Boffey M + D + M Study Silver Gelatin on Paper Signed on verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) About Michael Boffey was born in Liverpool. Education He trained at Loughborough College of Art and Design (BA Hons 1994) and De Montfort University (MA with Distinction 1997). Exhibitions He has participated in exhibitions at Charlie Smith Gallery, Shoreditch, London, Victoria House, Bloomsbury Square, London, The Lion and Lamb Gallery, London, The Royal College of Art, and Cable Street Studios and Gallery, London   About the postcard artworks According to psychopathologists people's abiding tendency is to avoid confronting loss. Instead, they cherish it by refusing change and subject the relics that remain to endless emotional ransacking as a continuation of their own withdrawal. Imaged in the photographic paintings of Michael Boffey, remnants, here in the form of cut flowers, vases, clocks and other domestic and ornamental paraphernalia are not superfluities then. These works with their faded fancies, have been transformed through various nominal and procedural processes, both gentle and violent, to allow a meditation on reminiscence. The playing fields of memory contain a superabundance of richly complex accounts, sometimes embellished and sometimes faded. Apparently, nostalgia is a very bad thing, but despite benign advice about not looking back, we have little idea of what our world will be like in the future. It seems that coping with the fears and pleasures of now and with those of tomorrow does necessitate acknowledgement of a past. - Jean Taylor

Aza Mansongi Boomerang, 2021 Acrylic on Paper Signed on front and verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) Born and raised in the Democratic Republic of Congo, she earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts from Academie des Beaux arts de Kinshasa, the Fine Art school of Kinshasa. Now based in Douala in Cameroon, she has showcased her work extensively in group and solo exhibitions in the DR Congo, South Africa, France, Switzerland and USA. Beginning by alternating between painting and sculpture, today Mansongi loves to use her brush and paints to creatively capture a likeness. Completely inspired by her direct social environment, her painting is primarily the reflection of the vision of her world first then that of the society. Aesthetically, her painting is a mix of abstract character with bright colours and the particularly noticeable presence of strong lines.

Alayne Spafford Down Down Collage, Acrylic and Oil on Paper Signed on verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) The search for balance is fundamental in the art of Alayne Spafford. The challenge in her work is to reconcile a natural tendency to organize and polish with a strong desire to reject those principles in favour of chaos and disorder. Evidence of this can be seen in both the process and finished product of her work. Although the initial foundation of base colour is applied rather spontaneously and with limited self-censorship, the subsequent layering of colour clearly demonstrates a strong influence of the conscious mind. During this process shapes and marks are added and manipulated in order to build a complex yet intuitive order. As such, the artist's work mirrors her internal struggle to find balance between the opposing but complementary aspects of her nature. Alayne Spafford received a Bachelor of Fine Arts with honours from the University of Saskatchewan. After studying textiles at Concordia University and the Centre de Metier d'Art en Construction Textile in Montreal, she worked for many years in the costume department of Cirque du Soleil. Now residing in Edmonton, Alberta, Alayne focuses on painting full time. In 2013 Alayne collaborated to form Burn Design Collective, an art technique created with shou-sugi-ban (burnt cedar). Her work is represented in galleries and private collections worldwide.   Education University of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, SK (1989-1993) Bachelor of Fine Arts, Honours (Distinction, Distinguished exhibition) Centre Des Metiers D'Art En Construction Textile (CMACT), Montreal, QC (1997) Jaquard weaving (Pointcarre software, tapis au tissage) Concordia University, Montreal, QC (1997) Fibre Structures, Textile print and dying Dawson College, Montreal, QC (2001) Graphic Design   Recent Exhibitions Rhodes Contemporary, London, England - Group show, (Jan. 15 - Feb. 15 2021) Moberg Gallery, Des Moines, Iowa - Group show, (Jan. 29 - Feb. 29, 2021) Haw Contemporary, Kansas City, Missouri - Solo show, (Oct. 26 - Nov. 26 2020) Sopa Fine Arts, Kelowna, BC - Solo show, (August 2020) Moberg Gallery, Des Moines, Iowa - Kicking Abstracts and Taking Names, Women Painters (Sept.13 - October 19, 2019) Zinc Contemporary Arts, Seattle, WA - Seattle Art Fair (Aug.1 - Aug.4, 2019) Sopa Fine Arts, Kelowna, BC - Encompass - Alayne Spafford and Sylvain Coulombe (June 6 - July 2, 2019) Disruptor Gallery, Edmonton, AB - Group show with Brenda Draney, Dana Holst, Anya Tonkonogy, Andrew Benson - (November 17, 2018) Sopa Fine Arts, Kelowna, BC - Equilibrium - Solo show (Mar.1 - May 3 2018) Sopa Fine Arts, Kelowna, BC - Gander - Matt Petley-Jones, Ulrich Panzer, Alayne Spafford (Aug.3 - Sept. 5 2017) Edmonton, Alberta - Burn Design Collective - Showing of new works (June 10, 2017) University of Alberta, Agriculture Department, Edmonton, Alberta - Commissioned Installation (Burn Design Collective) (December 2016) Sopa Fine Arts, Kelowna, BC - Turnaround - Alayne Spafford & Jordi Alfaro (Oct.6 - Nov. 29 2016) Gallery Representation Haw Contemporary Zinc Contemporary Sopa Fine Arts Moberg Gallery About the postcard artworks These small works are studies in shape and colour with addition of collage.

Deborah Azzopardi Last Night..., 2021 Acrylic on Paper Signed on front and verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) About Deborah Azzopardi has been producing her distinctive, playful images for over 35 years. She is determined to enjoy life to the fullest, to express herself creatively, whether or not her work is commercially viable. Essential to her success is painting things that make her happy. As a result, her images are inviting, colourful, and honest. Without any great philosophical mission, she is free to play with the drama and joy of the everyday. She breaks her subjects down into vibrant segments, into moments we have all experienced, and which she has captured forever in paint. Deborah's unique and feminine take on contemporary art is best described by the esteemed art critic Estelle Lovatt FRSA: "America has Lichtenstein, we have Azzopardi!" The respect she has gained in publishing reflects the honesty and innocence of her intentions. The viewer is allowed to ponder, without preconceptions, the moments she represents. Her paintings and Limited Editions celebrate the comedy of turbulent relationships, seductions, the fantasies and worries of us all. To possess a piece of her work is to embrace the qualities that make us human, to be captivated by her palette of colour.   Education   Life!   Exhibitions   The exhibition list is vast!   Gallery Representation   The Cynthia Corbett Gallery Also: Fine art publisher, Felix Rosenstiel`s Widow and Son. About the postcard artworks Title: 'Last Night....' It was a memorable and fun evening, full of emotion and possibly passion. This is a moment in the twilight hour.

Petra Börner is a Swedish artist who lives and works in London, where she also studied fashion at Central Saint Martin's. Driven by a desire to draw and illustrate from a young age, her award-winning work feature through collaborations with clients worldwide, but her main focus has grown into creating and exhibiting her personal work.

Liberty Blake 98k Collage on Paper Signed on verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) Born in England in 1968, Liberty grew up in an alternative, arts-centric environment that encouraged self-expression and creativity. She attended The Looking Glass School, a small experimental school that fostered arts and the environment. This formed the beginning of her love for art, outdoor adventure, and the natural world. 
 In 1997 she moved to Utah, with her partner and son, where she co-ran the 'Art Shack' at Sundance, teaching, exhibiting, and doing graphic design for the resort. It was during this time that she made her first wilderness-inspired abstract collages. 
 In 2007 she participated in the "337 Project" in Salt Lake City, Utah, where she created the first of many large-scale 'wall collages.' The most recent of these is the collaborative 'Work in Progress Mural Project,' a 60ft collaged mural, comprised of stencil portraits of women made by members of the community in workshops that she runs with her mother and fellow artist, Jann Haworth. 
 Liberty lives and works in Salt Lake City, Utah. Her abstract collages are a document of the wild natural places and neglected urban environments of the American West. She has shown extensively in Utah, in group and solo shows, and was previously represented by The Phillips Gallery and Modern West Gallery in Salt Lake City. Her work is housed in private collections across the United States, Europe, and Canada. Her current body of work explores the impact of wildfires, their increasing severity, and growing threat.

I used an END bag as a base for these collages, I love the printed white letters and wanted to incorporate them in small collages so they could feature prominently. I use mostly found and salvaged paper, scavenging is an important part of the process.

Simon Morley Camus, La Peste / The Plague 1, 2021 Ink on Paper Signed on verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) I am British, but live in South Korea where I teach at a university. I also spend time in my house in central France. I lived in London for many years, and before that, in New York City. I divide my time between teaching, painting and writing. My painting practice usually involves 'painted words' which I find rather than invent. I am interested in the shape of there words as well as their meaning. I often use book covers and title pages.

I am increasingly interested in how clothing can become a costume for a character to be recognised in, and reacted to according to predetermined behavioural tropes within an actualised scenario. Taking the psychology of fashion as an undercurrent, I like to feature people and objects in works multiple times, seeing them as reoccurring characters on different sets, perhaps akin to a time traveling soap opera. I like making work about ideas I hear or things I read, especially stories. If the stories have been falsely elaborated - then I like them even more. The idea of making a record of history, a third hand account, perhaps wayward from the truth interests me, but not with all my works. Some of my works are a private joke.

I am increasingly interested in how clothing can become a costume for a character to be recognised in, and reacted to according to predetermined behavioural tropes within an actualised scenario. Taking the psychology of fashion as an undercurrent, I like to feature people and objects in works multiple times, seeing them as reoccurring characters on different sets, perhaps akin to a time traveling soap opera. I like making work about ideas I hear or things I read, especially stories. If the stories have been falsely elaborated - then I like them even more.

Jay Miriam Hellfire Book Club, 2021 Watercolour on Cotton Paper Signed on verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) Born in New York City and raised in Brooklyn, Jay Miriam is a traditional oil painter currently based in Brooklyn, New York. Jay paints portraits of everyday people doing everyday things. She is fascinated by moments of lingering time, and in portraying the beauty of our most ordinary experiences. From brushing our teeth, to getting trapped in small talk, to waiting for our date to arrive at the bar. Her gestural figures depict a soft sense of humor. Jay Miriam paints from memory. She doesn't use photography, computers, or projectors in her process. Instead, she pulls from a memory or story and reinterprets it. Creating a poetic world to depict a specific emotion, instance, or relationship. Often each painting takes months and up to one year to complete.

Alex Jorgensen Untitled/ SP1.01, 2021 Oil on Paper Signed on verso 10 x 15cm (3¾ x 5¾ in.) (b. 1967, London, UK) Alex Jorgensen studied at Bath Academy of Art and Brighton Polytechnic, where he received the Annabel Birtles Award. His interest lies in quiet exploration of form, composition and construction of works that give weight to small things. He had a workshop near Bath in the '90s, where he made small oil paintings and curated several exhibitions of work by important British potters, before a move to London and starting a family with his late wife Amanda (nee Lewis). Recent years have seen a return to oil paint and a move to Buckinghamshire. "I am something of a contemplative and see my work closer, perhaps, to prayer or song than art. A distillation of things - using a few simple materials. It is slow work. Circular and constructive in nature. A lifelong interest".
