Simons' art work is conceived like pop songs. Each exhibition is like an album. He uses pen, ink, watercolour, pastel and conté  crayon to make narrative images that hover around in the vein of humour, love, absurdism and folly.  

Simon has a background as a magazine and newspaper illustrator and  cartoonist - everything from spot illustrations in the Spectator or the Mail to political cartoons for the Guardian. His work has appeared at the Royal Academy Summer Show and the Royal Society of Portrait Painters. He has been selected a number of times for  the Association of Illustrators Annual exhibition. This year he was  selected for the Artist of The Year show at the  Mall galleries. In 2017 he had a one man show at the Garage Gallery in Aldeburgh. 
Simon has recently become an enthusiastic Ipswich resident.

Hannah trained at Staffordshire University and the Uni of Central England majoring in sculpture.   After taking a break to have her three girls she has retured to painting sculptural subjects in the medium of egg tempera.  Using a limited colour palate she attempts to create depth and texture in her depiction of textiles.  She also draws in pen and ink.  A series of her drawings and paintings were featured in a range of cards produced for the Suffolk Autistic Society. 

Hannah has exhibited her work regularly in Ipswich at Sub Arts, the Town Hall, Uni of Suffolk and Jerwood House.  She has also exhibited with the Peggy Jugg Foundation and at the Arbour PH.  She has an upcoming exhibition at Asylum Studios in Rendlesham and has work on display for sale at the Greyhound and Spread Eagle PHs.  

Madily Tapp was set up in 2018 and is a small company run by Madeleine who is anArt Textiles Designerand Teacher.  Her work is bold, full of colour and pattern and always starts life as an original painting.  She paints animal faces, plant life, land and seascapes and still life and takes elements from the paintings to create repeat patterns that are digitally printed onto fabrics.  Madeleine uses these fabrics to create products for interiors,  such as lampshades,  cushions, prints, fabrics and more recently is venturing into wallpapers and feature walls.
