The Walk of Art, in its 8th year, is a community-led creative festival to showcase local artists, performers and other creatives. To support this, I was commissioned to paint a community-inspired piece involving the electricity box outside the Horsforth library, right at the heart of the town.
Whilst painting, I was approached by many locals asking what was happening. Amongst them, 2 lovely guys, who personified community and kindly volunteered to be photographed – my new inspiration for the piece. It was a great opportunity to use the 3D surface to literally bring a new dimension to my painting!
The festival took place on 1 & 2 July 2023 – you can read more about it here.
