Inspired by the natural beauty in the world around us, Athene (pictured right) designs handmade jewellery collections which celebrate the delightful and fabulous irregularities of nature (we like to call it wonkiness). Athene’s dolphin “Moonshine” is inspired by the varied visual patterns of sea life and moonlight as it interacts with the water. Having previously painted a Goat and a Puffin, Athene is delighted to be invited to be involved again with this wonderful fundraiser.

Alisha Flouquet (pictured left) is a vibrant mixed-media artist whose bold use of colour and texture celebrates the interplay of nature, neurodiversity, and the female form. Her favourite medium is acrylic paint, which she loves for its versatility and vibrancy. Alisha's art reflects the fluidity of the female experience, emphasizing strength and vulnerability through expressive forms and dynamic compositions. As a neurodiverse individual, Alisha takes her everyday struggles with ADHD and uses this in her work to provide a unique perspective, challenging conventional perceptions of beauty and identity. Alisha's work celebrates individuality, encouraging a dialogue about acceptance and understanding.
