YOYO Gallery, The Big Draw 27th -30th Oct 2011
Sunday 30th at the YOYO Gallery was the last day of showcasing the local community’s creative talents. I was greeted by a very friendly group of art graduates and Ruth George the exhibition coordinator. They offered me tea and a beautifully decorated cupcake and I was encouraged to join into the spirit of day. Their theme ‘The Animals are coming to Tea’ was based upon a poem and illustrations by Hattie Hyder. I drew a lion and a spider to add to the environment painted on the walls. The amount of creatures great and small adouring the walls are a great testement to thier success in reaching people in the local community and inspiring everyone to have a go and draw.
