The work is challenging and exciting. The children range in age from 5 years to 18 years. I see most of them for a short time 30min to an hour. I also have two adolescent groups who I have see over the whole of the residency. Hence the artworks that I offer have to be able to be completed in a short space of time and be suitable for a range of skill levels.

Several of the adolescents who I have had regular contact with have been making their own sculpture works from recycled materials, there are two groups one at PMH and the other at Bentley Adolescent Unit. They have used a range of materials to produce their pieces, plastic bottles, bubble wrap, wire, papier mache and a variety of bits and pieces. It is planned to show these pieces at the exhibition to be held at the end of the residency.
In the meantime I have continued to create a number of 3D pieces, paintings and have also added to the portfolio of drawings shown previously.
