Marina Emphietzi

Marina Emphietzi now lives in London and her work explores issues of time, life and memory.

She creates engaging artworks in a distinct semi abstract style inspired mostly by water and the marine environment.

With the sound of crashing sea waves and the hot feeling of sand under bare feet, Marina’s story starts in Famagusta, Cyprus. Her family’s childhood home built along the scenic coastline, she spent most of her days by the beach. It’s here that she came to know the limitless freedom of the Ocean. Surrounded by the vivid landscapes of Cyprus, art came naturally to Marina. Her heart’s desire was to study art, although she would pursue a successful career in hotel management and marketing before finally achieving her life-long dream. She has studied at the prestigious schools of Central St-Martins and the University of Massachusetts Amherst (UMASS).

At the age of 14, Marina Emphietzi lost her home in the trauma of war. The ocean and its waters, full of life and possibility, are a part of her most joyful memories. They are from which she draws inspiration from in her work and why her pieces have the power to evoke strong feelings of nostalgia and freedom. A world traveller, Marina has called many places home. The man-made beaches of Dubai, the crowded markets of Ethiopia, and now, the grey skies of London, U.K., each brings their own colour palette to Marina’s current work. Created with robust energy, her paintings have playful textures and a distinct style. They bring to surface lost memories of being near water, the sound of rumbling waves, the feeling of a warm breeze across skin. A metaphor of the transient human experience, her artwork suggests we flow through the journey through life, ever-changing and free.

    Neale Marriott

    Neale Marriott’s work explores our relationship with the places around us, whether the fleeting joy of the natural landscape or the complexity and enclosure of urban spaces. I see my artworks as constituting a journey in different ways. First, I want them to have an energy and sense of movement within themselves in order to replicate our interaction with the world. They also explore a journey from figuration to a more dynamic abstraction. Finally, in my sculptural work particularly, they are a reflection on a more generic human journey with references to history, progress, science and geography.

    I have always been interested in exploring different materials on which to paint including metal, concrete, glass & Perspex.

    In using these materials, I’ve always sought to blur the boundaries between the illusory nature of paint and the physical properties of materials.

    Neale Marriott’s paintings and painted construction pieces on layers of acrylic Perspex and concrete try to take painting into new spatial and sculptural areas by creating an experience that subtly shifts and changes as the viewer moves around them. The aim is to create more interactive spatial artworks that better represent our experience and explore different contexts and narratives.

        Andrew Bylo

        Andrew Bylo is an artist and illustrator with 38 years’ experience in the worlds of Advertising, Design & Editorial: 2019 finds him working mostly for a major client in Japan via Far East agent Cross World Connections based in Tokyo. He will shortly be starting on the 2020 collection.

        Andrew’s core skill is working from life, swiftly and accurately in media from pencil/pencil crayon to gouache or acrylic. Stylistically, his work ranges from economical line drawing to full atmospheric colour. Spontaneity is the hallmark of his work.

        During a rich & varied professional career, he’s had afternoon tea with Ian Dury at The Waldorf Astoria as part of a book project for Faber & Faber on emerging creatives, and been sent to Patrick Moore’s house to draw his portrait from life on behalf of Mitchell Beazley, only to be told by the celebrated astronomer that the drawing was ‘a grotesque caricature’. The publishers had warned Andrew it might not go well…

        Drawing and painting people from life is his real love, and he was appointed in October 2017 as ‘portrait-painter-in-residence’ for London-based agency ‘krow’ and has painted all 54 of krow’s team. Malcolm White, chief strategy officer and founder of krow, said: “Andrew Bylo’s genius is in working quickly to seize a recognisable impression of an individual. We commissioned him to celebrate the role our people play in the success of the agency, and to make our office walls far more personal.”

        Andrew Bylo is an avid keeper of sketchbooks, dating back to the 1970s, about 130 or so at the last count, and in his spare time, curiously enough, he rather likes to draw and paint.

          Artful Dodger

          Artful Dodger is widely credited with being one of the first Aerosol Writers/Urban Artists to emerge from the UK, serving as an influence to some of today’s top UK Urban Artists. Over the years, he has evolved professionally to have clients which include the BBC, Channel 4, EA Games, LucasFilm (Star Wars), MTV, The South Bank Show, as well as a well-known breakfast cereal.

          On the community arts side of his portfolio, he has a strong background in both organising and facilitating a variety of creative mural projects and workshops. Working mainly in inner cities with disadvantaged youth and other young people (through children’s arts charities such as SP8 Of The Art).

          He has also been involved in projects in the US, Italy, France, Spain, Hungary, Romania and Ukraine, as well as all over the UK. One of his projects on the now fallen Aylesbury Estate in SE London, even won an award from the late Princess of Wales.

          Employing an eclectic palette of media, ranging from spray-paint and acrylics to pastels and graphics tablets, he takes the inspiration for his paintings from the intrinsic beauty of nature, as well as a vast range of musical styles, urban and pop culture influences. Along with this, he describes his work as being a combination of ‘liquid light’ and ‘visual music’.

            Alex Pearce

            Alex Pearce is a painter of cityscapes and other landscapes.

            The constant pushing and pulling of mediums has been a key element with in his paintings. This has allowed his exploration of cityscapes and the manipulation of light to be constantly moving forward and changing. As the cityscape changes with every new building or as the sun or moon changes with every new day.

            The subject of his paintings is the manipulation of light in a cityscape and its modern architecture. It is the small details which help to build up his paintings. Through the use of photography and drawing Alex has been able to capture some of the development in London.

            The details that can be seen in his work come from observing the city and its architecture. This has allowed Alex to experience the key details people notice. Why certain people stop to discover an architectural feature that catches their attention. It is these details that become noticeable in the drawings or paintings of architecture.

            Alex Pearce’s painting style has taken on an abstracted yet romantic theme. The colours in his paintings being very nostalgic. This is key to creating the notion of silence and subtlety when being viewed. Together with this calming nature it is the dominant forms of the buildings and features that help to give presence to his paintings.

              Mark Godwin

              The motif of Landscape has been a major part of the work of Mark Godwin for over 30 years. He has been greatly influenced by the 18th century Romantic notion of the Sublime, and our longing for an emotional encounter with nature.

              These paintings are about finding a visual equivalent for his sensation before nature. They are paintings about the poetic idea of landscape. There is a nostalgia, and timelessness about his work, and a conscious blurring of the boundaries between abstraction, and representation. They are landscape of the imagination. They are paintings about feelings.

              Mark Godwin began his artist training at Stourbridge College of Art and progressed on to Central School of Art, the Royal College of Art and Cite Internationale des Artistes in Paris. Following his training Mark went onto work as a copperplate printer for Palm Tree Editions, Albion Editions and London Contemporary Art.

              Since then Mark has set up his own studio to develop his practice concentrating on painting and printing. He has exhibited extensively and his work has been included in many collections both private and corporate.

                We were so keen to launch our Artist Directory we have decided to launch the first phase in advance of the costing and portfolio generation section.

                In this first phase we have included a diverse selection of artists we collaborate with.

                Over the coming months this selection will continue to grow eventually to include all of our artists.

                In the near future our artwork selection, frame visualisation and costing database will come on-line.

                This will allow the selection of artworks and frames, see a visualisation of the framed artwork and include this in a portfolio for purchase.

                If you would like further information about this artist or their available artworks please complete this form and we will get back to you as soon as we can.
