My latest project
“THIS IS ENGLAND!”
I’m very excited to announce my latest project! I’m producing a collection of original paintings based on the Bafta award winning film ‘This is England’.
This has all been made possible by Bafta Award winning director and screenwriter Shane Meadows, Mark Herbert and Warp Films, who have kindly allowed me access to an unlocked version of the film.
These pieces have all been painstakingly composed from frames from the film rather than stills or photographs. The image quality of the frames I captured in terms of resolution wasn’t great, so the work involved has been immense. So far I’ve spent a 6 weeks composing the first 4 pieces, creating the artwork and then the colour visuals. This is all before hand painting the final pieces, of which Shaun was the first to be completed followed by the Subway Scene and Milky and Combo.
I’m donating all the originals, which will be auctioned at the Great Notts Ball, all proceeds going to The Television Workshop, who I’m working closely with on this project.
I’M releasING a limited collection of prints that will be available to buy shortly after the Ball.
I will continue to make charitable donations made from every sale.
Tickets are still available for the Great Notts Ball. If you are interested in booking, please contact carly@televisionworkshop.co.uk for more information.
