Cecil Rice (bio)
Cecil Rice graduated from Brighton Art College in 1983. Cecil is well known for his powerful and vibrant watercolors of seascapes and architecture. Cecil has a passion for Italy, especially Venice, which he visits regularly. The element that resounds throughout all Cecil's work is that of light, Cecil comments "I'm attracted by how the brightest light in a painting gives way to the deepest of shadows. This range of contrast in a watercolor imparts a kind of strength and satisfies the eye."

Chris Parsons (bio)
Born in 1969 I was encouraged at a young age to start drawing and painting by reading comics and books. I had an instinctive feeling that this would become part of my life. During my school years the only lesson I looked forward to was art. Upon leaving school I enrolled at my local college to further my academic studies including A’ Level art and design.

David Shepherd (bio)
David Shepherd - "to start with, my life was a series of disasters". Growing up in the 1930’s, his one ambition was to be a game warden in Kenya and so, on leaving school, he went to Kenya and was promptly told by the National Parks people that he was not wanted. On returning to England, David was faced with two choices. One was ‘to drive a bus for a living’ and the other was to pursue the only other possibility: painting. However, he admits that he had very little interest in art and certainly no talent; for he was promptly rejected by the Slade School of Fine Art as ‘untrainable’.

Debra Stroud (bio)
My first creative attempt, at the age of two and a half, was to peel off the nursery freeze that my Mother had applied to the wall minutes earlier.I have always had a creative mind and as a child I used to send my inventions to various toy manufacturers. One of my designs was for an all enclosed sledge encapsulated in a sort of gyroscopic pod so that you stayed in a stable position as you hurtled down a snowy hill.

Fred Fieber (bio)
I think my first creative work was in 1962 age 2 when I painted my brothers treasured train spotting books completely yellow ochre. Trains featured heavily in my early works largely inspired by my brother and father (both talented artists). It was a railway inspired picture that won me first prize in BBC’s South Today’s Painting competition in the mid 60’s I won the junior prize and my brother the senior prize.

Ged Mitchell (bio)
Amazingly I find myself thinking about how I initially got interested in painting and how I became an artist. I say amazingly because it was never really meant to be – at least never in my wildest dreams! However, after taking the plunge in 1988 I have continued to make my living from my art, even though I didn’t get off to the best of starts by failing my 11+. I attended The Manchester Primary School and keen to encourage my flagging self-esteem, they offered me a place at art school.

As a child I spent whole days painting and drawing on in solitude in my room. I left school as soon as I could and enrolled on a two year foundation course with A level subjects – all art based. It was an idyllic time for me. The art disciplines were all taught by practising artists, which was a great benefit. Between 1982 and 1985 I trained as a printmaker in Manchester. My work at this time was figurative and in my last year at college I had two pieces exhibited in the Whitworth Young Contemporaries Exhibition.

Reminiscent of days decorated with clear blue skies and open roads, Colleys artwork is a
monument to the freedom of self, painting vast azures across a pure white border of clouds,
painting the warm tans and greys of the roads and pathways. Colley also focuses heavily on
the lights in the night, neon, street and the like, drawing a powerful comparison between the
day and night but none the less depicting a vivid image of the journey and the limitless world.

When I look back at my childhood, I can remember wanting to stay late at nursery and primary school to finish my painting and if I remember correctly, I took the specialised art of ‘drawing on walls’ to a new level.

Although I did art to ‘A’ level standard I never really considered it as a career option as my real ambition was to work with animals. However, as a youngster I was discouraged by teachers from doing this, who suggested that I think of a ‘real’ job instead. This was reason that I actually ended up becoming a teacher. On doing this job I found that I was not suited to it at all and subsequently left with absolutely no idea what I was going to do.
