As part of the Prudhoe Art Trail this year, 4 of my Celtic knotwork pieces are being shown in the Community Hub at 61 Front Street, Prudhoe, and 1 Celtic knotwork piece is being shown in the library. The art trail is taking place from 8th to 22nd July.

All of the pieces in the art trail are shown in the gallery above. They have all been hand drawn in pencil and ink on paper and are A4 in size.

Also in the Art Trail, in the library, is a collaborative art piece created by my Consett community art group. They worked with collage and printmaking techniques to create the collage paper and produced a wonderful collaborative piece.

Please do come along and support all of the artists and the businesses in Prudhoe. Find out more about the event on the Visit Prudhoe website.
