Harvey Wyatt
My name is Harvey; I am a practicing artist from Norwich. Over the last year I have been working as an Autism Co-Trainer for the NHS. This job has informed a lot of my creative practice over the last few months and is the series that I will be displaying. Being Autistic myself, this series of works explores the impact of things like masking, the internal struggle and also showing the hidden beauty in the way neurodivergent brains function. I continue to explore this through portraits in a bold, graphic style inspired by my love for comic books and pop culture.
Liz Monahan
Liz Monahan is a UK based artist living in Norwich. With over 30 years’ experience in illustration and art, she divides her time between teaching and her own professional practice.
Liz allows the everyday details of people’s lives to speak through her work. Fleeting expressions, a gesture, a stance, an emotional frisson all activate Liz’s interest to create. Drawing upon observation, personal memories, and documented moments from the past, Liz’s figures and faces explore our ever-shifting relationships with others, and the endless intricacies of looking and being looked at.
Paul Zawadzki
Bungay artist Paul Zawadzki is inspired by a love of the Waveney Valley and the uncompromising coastline at Covehithe and Dunwich on the Suffolk Coast. Recently completing Masters in Fine Art at Norwich University of the Arts, Paul mainly paints in oils on canvas, board or sheet metal, and is investigating the use of natural materials like earth and rust in his work to capture the texture and spirit of the landscape. With a love of spontaneity, he enthusiastically embraces the ‘happy accident’, using dripping, blotting and splashing paint while retaining an element of traditional landscape painting.
PAUL CLARKE
Paul Clarke is a plein air painter based in Norwich, whose subject matter is wide ranging from rural landscapes based in Norfolk/Suffolk, to gritty nocturnal paintings in urban settings, and portraiture. He is keen on exploring textures contained, for example, in weathered buildings or aging machinery that grow old gracefully.
Paul’s inspiration to paint comes from a number of sources. It might be simply a pile of autumn leaves on the ground, or a grand view across a farmland landscape. He is also drawn to painting the activities of people in a normal day such as shoppers in the back streets of Norwich or sitting on a beach on the coast. It could be a significant event, or an object, or scene that means something to someone.
Laura Pearson-Clark
Laura Pearson-Clark is a Contemporary British Artist living and working in Cambridgeshire. She is known for observing the decorative patterns and bold colours found up-close in local landscapes to create original mixed media compositions, plus live painting to musical concerts. Her portfolio has included large scale commissioned projects including a heritage lottery funded wall mural for a summer exhibition at Ely Museum and outdoor site specific work for Cambridge University Festival.
There’s a playful conversation between Art & Science in her work, particularly from her recent tree portrait series, depicting the mind-blowing mycelium network found underground in forests.
Lisa Atsumi
I’m a local artist based in Norwich, deeply inspired by my travels around the world, especially influenced by the Japanese sense of order and balance.
I have a particular passion for working on old, textured vintage fabrics. This unique canvas allows me to blend the old with the new, creating art that tells a story and creates mood with a sense of nostalgia and place.
Ally Zawadzki
Bungay contemporary abstract artist Ally Zawadzki deliberately goes against established conventions of painting – sometimes using mediums that compromise each other in layers that, when distressed and manipulated, produce unexpected results. She also experiments with manipulating wax, cement and oils with scratched designs based on prehistoric cave paintings. She embraces the idea of allowing spontaneity to influence the development of her paintings, and this way of repeatedly manipulating and transforming the surface examines the very nature of materials we are comfortably familiar with and raises questions about preconceptions and tactile experience.
Frivolity Art
My name is Maryna Tsymbal aka Frivolity Art, and I am an artist born in Ukraine. Currently, I live in Norwich.
I have always had an interest in drawing. In 2015, during a family trip, I decided to start a sketchbook to capture various scenes, often of sunbathing individuals. Initially, my sketches were basic, but they provided a sense of calmness. Subsequently, I purchased a canvas and oil paints to depict poppies on the snow, which impressed my family and encouraged me. Drawing then became my hobby. I attended painting masterclasses, took private lessons from an established artist.
Peter Wiltshire
I have been making stained glass to sell since 2014. My work has been exhibited in show gardens at Gardeners World Live, Harrogate and Sandringham. I have been part of the Raveningham Sculpture Trail six times and I have twice been in exhibitions at the Merlina Arts Gallery in Bungay. I have made over 250 sales on Etsy and Saatchi Art.
David Hall
My work explores expressive image making, inspired by liminal and transitional states, for example between sea/water-land, dreams-waking, memory-forgetting. My creative practice embraces paint, mixed media and photography (analogue and digital), and various mark-making implements working on canvas and paper, as I intuitively search for and develop a way of working with materials that organically reflects the subject matter. Just as the fluctuating tides cover, wear down and reveal, so the images hide and / or reveal, perhaps exposing a lost fragment that has been painted over at some point.
Corrin Tulk
I enjoy creating abstract seascape paintings in oils. I live near the East coast of the Norfolk Broads. Walking meditations around Trimingham, Winterton, Caister beaches inspire my work. I use a bright colour palette to capture the changing landscape and the rugged beauty of the area. The paint itself is presented in layers and by working on several canvases at a time I revisit each one in turn until it feels finished. Visits to my studio in Upton are available during North Norfolk open studios in May 2026.
Simon Brooke
I’m a multi-Emmy Award-winning motion designer & illustrator with over 30 years’ experience. Alongside my commercial work, I’ve developed a personal practice rooted in automatic drawing, collage, and expressive mixed media, often exploring social and environmental themes. Early on, a piece inspired by the Metalheadz logo caught Goldie’s attention, encouraging me to pursue this direction. My work has since included pieces for Extinction Rebellion and responses to the 2024 riots. I’ve recently experimented with augmented reality and am creating a motion graphics piece, in the style of my artworks, to accompany a DJ soundscape I created about the environment.

Safi Butler
I gained a BA (Hons) Fine Art in 2002 and now create bright and bold lino prints.
I have a small garden studio, which has fantastic light. I hand pull most of my prints using a glass
baren to press, although do have a small Victorian book press which is handy for more tricky pieces.
I am influenced by nature – much of my work includes plants and wildlife, but especially cats. I have a little black cat of my own, who is a constant source of inspiration! I occasionally dabble with mono
printing and, more recently, acrylic painting.

She also runs the Norwich urban sketchers group.
Emma Binns
Emma Binns is a versatile artist blending painting, illustration and embroidery to create abstract worlds with a figurative essence. Her intricate monotone freehand illustrations often depict mysterious realms adorned with oversized fungi, plants, flowers – creating an enchanting and surreal atmosphere. In contrast, her vibrant, luminescent acrylic paintings focus on microscopic imagery, such as cells and organic forms, bringing these unseen worlds to life through expressive colour. By combining detailed monotone drawings with bold, colourful explorations, Binns crafts imaginative landscapes that blur the boundaries between the natural and abstract, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in her unique and otherworldly creations.
Lowenna Dan

Louie Andres
From the expressive landscapes of Suffolk to the subtle moments shared between people, my art is rooted in a deep fascination with human connection and the beauty woven into daily life. Working primarily in watercolour and oil, I strive to capture the interplay of light, color, and atmosphere—allowing each painting to evolve through layers of observation, memory, and intuition.
Inspired by the narrative traditions of 19th-century painters and the immediacy of Impressionism, I seek to balance figuration and abstraction, finding poetry in the ordinary and the extraordinary alike. Whether I’m painting a group of figures in quiet conversation or the fleeting grace of a floral still life, my goal is to evoke a sense of calm, reflection, and resonance.
Walter Conquy
My interests are taking atmospheric photographs. Including Abstracts, Buildings and Landscapes.
My Buildings are not just buildings I like to make images that ( I hope ) have more interest than just buildings.
I have developed my style having developed from black and white darkroom photography to Digital Images.
Kevin Smith Art
Kevin art is inspired by the resilience and elegance of trees, especially silver birches. Their weathered bark and enduring growth symbolise beauty in scars and healing in brokenness. Using acrylic on wooden boards and canvas, I create abstract, textured, and layered pieces that reflect the delicate yet enduring qualities of nature.
My time at art school deepened my appreciation for storytelling through art, and each piece explores themes of transformation and renewal. I hope my work encourages viewers to pause, reflect, and find connection—discovering the profound beauty within life’s imperfections, and the quiet strength found in its continual cycles of growth.
KasGrafik
Kevin is a Norfolk-based graphic designer and photographer who uses the photographic technique known as Intentional Camera Movement (ICM) to ‘paint’ the landscape before him with his camera.
Through ICM, Kevin captures an impressionistic and expressionistic view of the landscape or seascape—not only its physical characteristics, but also its atmosphere and emotion. By moving his camera during the exposure, he aims to convey the essence of what he sees, hears, and feels in each moment.
Tatiana Bogracheva
I was graduated as a physicist and had a scientific
career. It is great to discover the secrets of nature, not easy but very inspiring! Apart from my interest in
science as long as I can remember I have been interested in the arts. Being a scientist requires imagination and creativity, which helped me to get a step into the world of art. I am inspired by photography as a medium of self-expression. As a fine art photographer, I am producing pictures showing the way how I feel about my subjects, rather than just featuring them. I am also greatly inspired of the possibilities for combining artistic photography and digital painting. The art creation process for me is mindfulness, which I hope comes across in my pictures.
