ARTIST: Nick Grindrod

TITLE: Take a Minute

BIO: Nick Grindrod is a British artist, based in Sheffield. He studied Fine Art at the University of Derby. 

Boldly abstract in nature, Grindrod’s paintings skilfully layer strict geometric forms with gestural painterly handling. 

Working in intense bursts of activity, initial sketches are adapted and reformed in an instinctive, immediate process. Much of the aesthetic decision-making is done in the moment – intuitively working with the paintings in ‘real time’. Consequently, removal of paint and erasure of marks play just as important a role as the application of paint, and this is abundantly clear when we look at the finished works.

ARTIST: Jenny Tarr

TITLE: Becoming Blue

BIO: I’m a figurative artist exploring the interior worlds of women through minimalist, gestural portraiture. Working with acrylic, masonry paint, and expressive line, I strip the figure back to its essential marks to capture presence, emotion, and the subtle moments of becoming. I draw every day, using observation and intuition to build a fluid, responsive practice shaped by rhythm and repetition. My work is rooted in softness, strength, and the many layers of self we share (or conceal) from the world. Through simplicity and stillness, I aim to create space for reflection, connection, and the gentle power of being.

Starting bid

ARTIST: Sarah Christie

TITLE: Lirili Larila (Elephant)

BIO: I’m a self-taught artist who turns the chaos of the world into colour, texture, and unapologetic honesty. I dive into the subject’s people usually dodge mental health, feminism, and the messy, brilliant business of being human. My work is unfiltered, provocative, sometimes darkly funny, and always created to spark a reaction. I mostly work in acrylics with bursts of mixed media, shifting between pulp-inspired pop and stark monochrome depending on the story I’m telling. Creating from my kitchen studio while raising my 12-year-old, I keep my art raw, loud, and true. Perfection isn’t the goal; impact is.


Self-taught artist turning chaos into colour, wit, and truth. Bold, unfiltered work on mental health, feminism, and the messy human experience.

TITLE: N/A *1

BIO: I am a street artist, painter and sculptor from Vancouver's East side, Canada. Most of my work involves unsanctioned public installations.

ARTIST: Sue Hamilton-White

TITLE: Stanpit Marsh

BIO: I’m a fine artist creating abstract paintings that evoke, create or depict positive shifts on an emotional or visual level. My work is often layered, transitioning from one state to another, representing a journey or exciting an emotion based in freedom. I'm a synaesthete, meaning that when I hear music, I see colours and shapes. This informs the work I make, and results in work additionally inspired by the music I love, or requests taken as commissions.

Sacred Chaos item
Sacred Chaos
£75

Starting bid

ARTIST: George Ryan

TITLE: Sacred Chaos 

BIO: My work explores motion - where structure, form, chaos, and harmony collide. Using spray paint as my primary medium, I build forms through expressionism or stencil work, then disrupt them with impulsive marks or controlled gestures. Each piece becomes a negotiation between order and disorder. Colour is my realm: sometimes limited to focus intention, sometimes expanded to invite exploration. I’m drawn to ancient geometry and the shapes that echo through human experience. My goal is to push my emotions, thoughts, and influences into the physical world - creating work that confronts, interrupts, and refuses to sit quietly, art that still feels alive after you’ve walked away.

BIO: Mixed media experimental artist. Textured image-based work, driven by concepts taken from the world around us. Working in many mediums, using both digital and manual techniques. playing and pushing to see what happens! My journey starts with mark making, then capturing them digitally, to compose the image. Use and execution of materials come through from the concept to finalise the piece of work. Faces are found images, made up from various sources. Again, taking different elements of a face to create a new expression. Still learning, driving me forward in search of innovative ways of presenting my work.

ARTIST: Stevie Cavana 

TITLE: Lady Gaga

BIO: I am Stevie Cavana, a stencil artist from Scotland. I originally began creating art while struggling with mental health issues, finding comfort in the focus and repetition of drawing. I hand-draw and cut all my stencils, using bold colours to craft vibrant pop art. My process is both meticulous and meditative, helping me channel emotion into creativity. Over time, I’ve grown increasingly introspective, pushing my artistic boundaries. My work now leans toward social commentary, using familiar imagery to question what society overlooks. Each piece aims to spark reflection, encourage conversation, and inspire more mindful engagement with the world around us.


Stevie is an ever-evolving introspective artist who would describe his artistic direction as moving toward social commentary.

ARTIST: Luke Nigel Trimmings

TITLE: Empathy Tree

BIO: Known for his bold yet intricate black-and-white line work, Luke Nigel Trimmings (LNT) combines fine liners, paint pens, and spray paint to create pieces that explore the tension and harmony between nature and machines. While his work is predominantly monochrome, Luke uses colour as texture — a deliberate choice that adds depth and rhythm where it’s most needed.

From model aeroplane sculptures inspired by his early creative passions, to album covers and large-scale wall murals, Luke’s practice moves fluidly between scale and medium. His art invites viewers to look closer — to find precision, patience, and play in every line.

With exhibitions in Japan (Art Bank Gallery, Choshi, 2014) and finalist placements in Art Battles, LNT continues to push his craft, balancing technical skill with imaginative curiosity.
