Off to Byzantium

A justified morning off from the Cheshire Peaks & Plains and Macclesfield Town FC community mosaic!

One of my mentors/lecturers at Uni, Dave Pearson, sadly died in 2008. When he died he left an amazing legacy.  Please click on the link below to find out more about this amazing artist.

I had a wonderful morning with my old Uni friends watching the film about Dave's life, screened at The Cornerhouse in Manchester.

Tears and hugs abound, this morning has filled me with more inspiration. Dave Pearson was a wonderful teacher, a brilliant mentor, a lovely friend and incredible artist.  Around 20,000 pieces of work was found after his death and the Dave Pearson Trust has done an incredible job of sorting it all out.

Will tell you more another day but please check this out - his work needs a wider audience.
