Arts teacher Elizabeth Hutchin, also known as @Busyli33ie, has been running various creative workshops with school groups in Somerset in the run up to the Taunton Live performing and creative arts festival this July.
In one year 6 class of 10 and 11 year olds, she asked them to look at Daniel's work to inspire designs for a creative pair of socks - and here's some of the wonderful results. Well done kids!
Check out the Taunton Live website or follow @LiveTaunton for more including their upcoming exhibition!
Thank you so much for the “exposure” for Taunton Live 2016, but also your very kind gesture towards the children involved. They have truly been inspired by your work and will be bowled over by your generosity.
I too cannot believe the power of social media – one tweet has led to so much!
Please take a look at my website (www.busylizzieart.co.uk) and Facebook page (Busylizzie Art &Literacy Ltd) to see the range of my own work! I too write a blog – but have been a bit busy in schools over the last two weeks – I will link back to your site next time I write!
Huge thanks again…

With the exception of artists, inventors, and teenagers - we humans are diurnal daytime creatures on the whole, and although it’s one thing to be out and about during the night in a street lit urban environment, it’s a very different scenario if you find yourself in, say… oh, I don’t know, a forest per se. Where, if you’re lucky, you may hear the unmistakable cry or hoot of an Owl: natures very own nocturne, a stark reminder of the unknown peril of night, and a creature that has featured heavily in myth and folklore throughout the ages.
