Inspiration Runs Wild

Page 1





We are Newhall Creative Collective. This book celebrates the end of a year-long arts project. Every Wednesday we come together, drink tea, eat cake, laugh, chat and create art. Together we have made a place to be creative and let our imagination flow. Where having a go is what counts, and trying new ways of being creative encouraged. Our group is designed for people that don’t feel that confident to take part in the arts, as we have all felt that way! It is a place where people can learn new skills and make work they never thought they would be able to. Enjoy looking at our artworks in this book- we suggest it’s best enjoyed with your feet up and a cup of tea! We hope you enjoy looking at them as much as we have enjoyed creating them.
