First week back after Christmas holidays. Some people full creative energy, others want to chill.

"This is a picture of the dice, just rolling, its just like you could pick it out of the picture. I really want to take my time with this picture. Its important to me that it turns out well." Chris McIlhaton

Laura-Jane has started a new work.

"This silk panel is part of a trio of panels I have designed for wall hangings. The design was sixties inspired but still relates to my canvas designs, as they are both experimants of tones of the same colour and similar colours. This kind of design has always fascinated me as it is endless and the method encourages original patterns. I found the actual painting liberating and fun as I could go anywhere with the wax lines."

Liam has started working on an image of Kurt Cobain, he is using stencils and spray-paints, to build up different tones which will describe the face.

David began a painting of the grim reaper some months ago, after a break he has returned to this.

John is creating a work inspired by his interest in furniture.

Liam adds some new layers to his Kurt Cobain images, to create a different texture he is using a brush. "The idea was found in New Musical Express. It was pretty basic, the hair had blue tints in it already, so I emphasised a few blue tints and as his eyes were really blue, I blackened one eye so that the other eye sticks out more. The blue colour was spray paint but the black I hand painted so that the shadows show more."

Steven has used the computer to design images which he plans to sew onto tee-shirts.

John continues to work on his furniture picture.

David is making a glass painting of tweety-pie as a gift for a special friend.
