I have just completed a series of new flower paintings which can be viewed on my Paintings & Furniture page.  They range in price from £400 to £80 and would brighten an room!

Mandy has been at Parkside throughout the spring term conducting a series of highly creative, imaginative and of course, educational workshops with all the school’s classes. Every child in the school has had a go at painting, drawing and collage. They have made individual pieces of work as well as collaborating on large scale paintings made by projecting their own silhouettes.

This term the school has been exploring the themes of Healthy Eating, Outdoor Pursuits and Active Bodies.  The mural is created in three sections to reflect theses themes and the children will also be helping Mandy to complete this monumental painting to be permanently sited in the main hall.

Mandy isn’t only a talented artist, she is also a highly skilled IT professional. So in addition to the work on site, she is producing an interactive DVD Rom that documents the children’s work and the mural. It will also compliment the issues raised in the workshop sessions and be a learning tool which teachers can use in future lessons.

The children and staff have all greatly relished the experience of having art brought into school in such a fun and exciting way.
