Heather Robertson,\u00a0who is currently studying our Illustrating Children’s Book Diploma with Maggy Roberts,\u00a0contacted us recently as she has been commissioned by her local church to complete a series of paintings for them. Heather has so completed two paintings to date and we have added them below along with a piece by Heather explaining a little about them. We are really looking forward to seeing Heathers next instalments\u00a0and we will hopefully post them here when they are ready! Congratulations Heather, on two wonderful paintings!<\/p>\n

—————————————————-<\/p>\n

The church my parents attend was recently knocked down to make room for a new church building and a doctors surgery. The new church is now complete, and they were looking for someone to do some artwork to brighten up their entrance lobby.\u00a0 The church approached me, as they knew of my work through my parents.<\/p>\n

At first they wanted a colourful and inviting mural in the front entrance, but decided instead to\u00a0go for\u00a0several large canvases which can be rotated throughout the year. I have been commissioned to create all paintings required over the next year, and they have given me the freedom to create these in any style that\u00a0I feel will work.<\/p>\n

This creative freedom\u00a0is very exciting but also\u00a0challenging, as there is no clear brief to work from, and\u00a0I have to think carefully about how\u00a0I create\u00a0each piece so that it appeals to everyone.\u00a0So far I have completed the paintings for\u00a0Palm Sunday and\u00a0Easter Sunday, and will soon start work on the\u00a0paintings for Autumn Harvest and Christmas. I’ll also be painting a few others early next year.<\/p>\n
