The Big Fuss - brainchild of Artists David Lee BA Fine Art and partner in crime, Mr. Zeager Jones, has remained loyal to its concept of supporting and enhancing the local Welsh Art scene for many years.By offering Artists of all genres and experiences a professional, down-to-earth service of personal one-to-one direction – Our aim has been to provide as many Artists with the help, guidance and exposure their Art deserves.In its relatively short existence, The Big fuss has obtained tremendous encouragement from Artists in Wales and across the country. Our personal development as well as our geographical stance has matured too with time, and we have focussed our efforts into getting up and coming student artists, and unsigned bands on board with our project.What we offer, which our feedback indicates - is a strong creative community spirit, the likes of which happily leaves negativity and pretentiousness at the door. An art for Arts sake attitude is our driving force and to see more creativity and the use of Welsh Artistic talent is our ongoing endeavour.Our greatest achievement we believe is the knowledge that even though we have a small group of directors, our workforce far outweighs that. By having talented and dedicated Artists, all over Wales supporting us in any way they can too and by spreading the word about us, our concepts are reaching more talented people than ever before.It really has become one big family.If you think you might be interested in becoming a part of this revolution, please email [email protected] and we will be glad to have you on board.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
