Arts & Minds Exhibition update

Aran Islands, Ireland. Photo taken by Judith Kennedy.



I thought this had the look of a charming scene in a Studio Ghibli movie, so that inspired my monster doodle. It's one of my favourites! Thanks to Judith for sending me some really beautiful photos.

This Christmas, as part of the 'Arts & Minds' December Exhibition I will be doodling on photos submitted to me by Arts & Minds members, to be exhibited in the Leeds Central Library Gallery from December 6th - 29th. The theme of the exhibition is 'Things That Make Me Feel Good'.

Photo sent by Nicola Chapman, her daughter Tilly!

The theme of the exhibition is 'Things That Make Me Feel Good', we thought this theme was particularly relevant in the lead up to Christmas – it can be a stressful time. So, send a photo of something that you love! You will get a signed and framed doodled photo as a gift at the end of the exhibition if your photo is selected for exhibiting. All doodled photos will also be put on my website. There's a limit on how many we can exhibit so get your photo in as soon as possible. I need your photo by November 14th.

Expect the usual doodled monsters with a Christmas twist!

Cheers,
Phil

Love Arts Leeds: Happiness Postcard Exhibition

I'm gonna be part of this great exhibition showing at the Leeds Art Gallery from September 28 - October 12. There will be 50 local, national and international artists showing work at the exhibition. It's in the Art Space (near the shop).

The postcard exhibition is part of the Love Arts Festival, which celebrates the role of the arts in improving the mental health and well-being. With the theme of happiness.

So, here's my postcard;



The photo was taken by my wife Hayley Wall while on our honeymoon in Tokyo. One of the happiest times of my life. It was taken from the top of Tokyo Tower.

All postcards will be raffled at the end of the project. Proceeds will go towards raising funds for initiatives that promote positive mental health and well-being through the arts. This is a cause that's very close to my heart for personal reasons and I'm really glad to be part of it. I hope you can go along to see my postcard and all the other great works.
