Tracy Vine - Post-Modern Urban Artist. S1 E12 (podcast)

I met Tracy Vine when I was finishing my degree at Writtle University College, the area where we studied was then called Writtle School of Design. It was an unusual set-up, three years all in one large classroom, but it worked!

Since I've known Tracy it has become clear that she has found her forte in life and has grown from strength to strength. After leaving with a 1st class Digital, Fine Art and Design degree she went on to do a Masters in Art Research and from there has worked on several art/photography projects working with local charities and school children. Something that she has done, which was quite unexpected, is designing public art installations and she is working on a new one now. Enjoy the podcast which has plenty of tips for art students.

Tracy was a finalist for Rankin's 'World Photography Project'. Out of 72,000 she was in the top 6 under the category for 'Fun'.

Mike had the business acumen to advertise his illustration on The Billericay Discussion Page on Facebook, where I saw it. It is finally on our bedroom wall and looks brilliant! You might be thinking, where have I heard of Family Scribbles before? Mike was very kind to give an illustration of a very wonderful person who has become known as Colin the Clapper. He handed Colin the illustration as a thank you, Mike had been jogging past Colin most mornings as he stood on the roundabout near Basildon Hospital clapping all the NHS staff as they went to work. You can read a bit more about this here . Colin Wilkinson started paying tribute to the NHS staff on the 25th April 2020. When he had done it for forty days he made the national newspapers when he was ...

Metal Culture's Zoom Event - Quite a Few Faces from the Past!

I have known about Metal Culture, the one that is based in Southend, and their events for some time. I have often thought of joining one of their events but didn't get around to it. Last night I plucked up the courage to join their Zoom meeting called 'BASILDON, what next for the Creative Industries in South Essex?' It was really good actually, I imagined that I would sit observing, feeling too awkward to join in, but in fact I did get involved and added something to the various debates that were going on. To start with we watched six speakers; Aden Hynes from Sculpture Studios who showed a film. Moira Brock from La Danse Fantastique who showed a film. Joseph Brennan, an architect. Clare Mortimer from The Craft Shed. TIME - Therapy in Musical Expression, who showed a film and then Laura Mauro a writer. It was really interesting, although I already knew about Sculpture Studios and TIME. There were about forty participants and what struck...
