Very exciting news!
I am at the moment organising an overseas exhibition in Argentina. The theme for the show is DISTANCE and and I have invited 10 members of Drawn in Bristol to create a piece of work on A4 sized paper for me to take to Argentina to display in January 2012. I have already arranged for a group of Argentinian illustrators to work on the same theme and their work will be displayed alongside the work from Drawn in Bristol.
The whole exhibition will be also shown in Bristol UK sometime in March or April.
Happy times!
(More news about the progress of the project soon)
(I know the image doesn't match the news. I will replace it, but for now just imagine they are lots of smiley faces.)
