I’ve known drawing and painting were important to me since I was a child. I love working with watercolour and being inspired to create colourful, impressionist style works.
I discovered I was good at art at around seven years old. Without it, I’d miss being individual. Even if what I create is not what I intended, I celebrate the result … then I fix it! Rob Diss
Art is my life so it’s unthinkable to live without it. My work is eclectic, stylised realism. It rarely turns out how I had it in mind. I just roll with it and enjoy where it ends up. Rebecca Tregear
When I was five the teacher put my drawing on the wall and told my mum I was ‘good at art’. I guess they were right. I’d be bereft if I couldn’t create my artworks. Shirley Dougan
Creating art means being my authentic self. I started drawing on butcher paper as a toddler and never stopped being artistic in one way or another. Alicia Cornwell
