Painter

Koola Adams has been painting since 1999. She has a Fine Art degree and Masters from the University of Westminster, Harrow Campus. Her influences are varied but specifically the work of Modernist artists of the early 20th century, namely the Cubists, Supermatists and Constructivists. She sells her work through her website and on several online platforms. She has exhibited extensively in solo and group exhibitions across the UK.
Currently, Koola’s style revolves around examining the interplay between human beings and the geometric landscape. Her paintings feature vibrant shapes, sharply delineated by grid lines, aiming to mirror the geometry of urban environments

Painter / Collage / Mixed Media Artist

Since childhood she was passionate about drawing and colouring, but her lifestyle never allowed her to follow her passion until later in life. Now that she paints, she never limits herself. Being versatile, she chooses any subject, tries her hand in any medium, sometimes even paints the same subject in different mediums just to challenge herself. Her motto is “ Paint whatever you fancy, whenever you fancy”

Gill creates energetic, exciting abstract art in acrylics on panels, paper and canvas. Working intuitively, but always mindful of brushstrokes, mark making and composition, Gill’s each piece undergoes many changes as decisions are made and the painting builds up.

Painter

Humay studied illustration at the Harrow School of Art in the early 1980’s. A return to Art saw him join Cheryl Gould’s life drawing classes. One thing led to another and his controlled illustration style gave way to a freer gestural method and he is now a member of the Harrow Art Society and Harrow Open Studios.

Humay’s subject matter is very personal including friends, family and himself and their interests. Humay uses oils for his imaginative studies and his life drawings are developed using mixed media (usually oils, charcoal and ink).

He raised money for charity by running a life drawing class which was captured on film and is now running weekly life drawing classes in person.

I will set up a co-production activity which entails my self in conjunction with the visitors painting on a large single canvas.

Humay is Resting in 2025
