RAT Walks...

Rochford Art Trail was successful, not least because of the Collector Series funded commissions adding an extra dimension website.  I led Art Trail Walks on five of the Trail days, incorporating the nine Collector venues where possible.  Good feedback received from visitors and venues.  My bay window venue limited my scope but I showed three different studies of model, Lorraine - very suitable to the classy ladies designer shop Mia Elizabeth.

I took one of my walks to see the youth art project by Scott Irving (Brave Arts).  I'm sure he won't mind me showing this panorama.  I had popped round to see Scott while he was measuring up on the Friday and the whole thing was completed on Saturday.  For scale, see one of my walkers at far right - impressive.

Essex Schools Showcase for The Arts 2013

 Well, we did it again; this time eleven schools participated with visual art and performance.  Each school provided students to host for at least one day and four year 12 students from Chelmsford County High Schools for Girls formed my fantastic Organising Team during the event. For 2014, I am currently endeavouring to recruit long term planning and organising students who will eventually use their work experience to execute their own plan.  That's the idea...
