Digital Drawing Collaborative Project- Finished. Kind of.

How to treat all this work? I asked artists and creative friends to contribute to this project. In total 21 artists collaborated, which is pretty fabulous. Some of them sent multiple responses which were very different, so in total I had about 30 collaborative responses. It was a great way to objectify my physical self, in an abstract way and address all the issues I [...]

Income streams, funding and other stressful matters

I am sat here reviewing the guidelines for applying for a visual arts bursary with the arts council. It is almost humorous how the very act of reading the guidelines gives me acute imposter syndrome. I then read over the feedback I got from the recent Covid 19 award application, which was just scores, and the feedback for the first round of the bursary awards, [...]

collabs so far

collaborated images sent to me so far Here are the images people I have asked to be involved have sent back so far.
