Karl Bielik<\/a><\/h5>\n

Karl Bielik, one of our Expert Judges for the Jackson’s Open Painting Prize<\/a>, is an award-winning\u00a0abstract painter based in London. His paintings have been in numerous shows at home and abroad,\u00a0including The 2016 John Moores Painting Prize,\u00a0The Royal Academy Summer Show,\u00a0The Contemporary British Painting Prize and The London Open.\u00a0He has work currently touring China as part of ‘Contemporary Masters from Britain’ and a solo show at The Rochester Art Gallery in Kent.\u00a0He is the Founder and Director of Terrace Gallery and Studios. Bielik also writes and performs in\u00a0Lark<\/a>\u00a0who are signed to Standard Lamp Records. You can see more of Karl’s work in his interview with Jackson’s<\/a>, his Instagram<\/a> or on his website<\/a>.<\/p>\n

‘It sounds like someone crawling out of a swamp to me. \u00a0\u00a0It’s about the\u00a0work whether you’re emerging, unknown or fading from view… the one\u00a0constant is your practice. \u00a0Take it seriously, take it lightly, just\u00a0keep on doing it as much as you can… while there is still a flame.\u00a0Good times, bad times, don’t fall for any of it. It is just an invented\u00a0Art Market word anyway!\u00a0 Enjoy your moment in the Sun.’<\/strong><\/p>\n

JOPP 2018 Commended Entry Aisling Drennan<\/a><\/h5>\n

‘Aisling Drennan\u2019s practice examines the consequence of a mark and the conversation it sparks; possible definites and definite failures. Her approach to painting is playful even irresponsible at times, a concoction of ultimate violation and ultimate indulgence.’ Her work has been extensively exhibited around the UK and Ireland, her paintings shortlisted for and winning many competitions and creative funding opportunities (including being listed as a Commended Entry in Jackson’s Open Painting Prize 2018!<\/a>). Read more about her Commended Entry here, or view more of her work on her website<\/a>\u00a0and Instagram<\/a>.<\/p>\n

‘Set yourself up, expect things to happen, put yourself out there and be honest about the work you are making. It’s ok to fail because it’s part of the process but it’s not ok to not try.’<\/strong><\/p>\n
