Since I returned from Norway, I’ve been busy earning some income in my non-art job, and had a meeting with Paradigm Arts, with whom I ran some after schools comics workshops last year in my work as an illustrator.
Next week we have arranged to run 3 funded Peace Painting workshops at Witham St. Hugh’s school.
I’ve been invited to speak at an Art and Design Conference run by Paradigm Arts in February to launch the Peace Painting project.
The conference is attended by teachers and schools wishing to collaborate for arts projects, and we have exciting and ambitious plans for the Peace Painting Project.
Everything is looking positive, and the funding paid for this will provide much-needed match funding for any arts council grant applications, along with the research trip, and it’s good to be supported for this.
