It's very flattering that some schools have chosen to explore my work with their kids and use me as one of their chosen artists . . . so, I've put together this little 'fact sheet' for children, explaining how I work. 🙂 I hope it helps. 😁👍
Awww, how lovely. Thank you Lisa. Just been to one of my favourite schools @HaggerstonSch today and saw active mentoring of Year 13 happening to support their ambitions. @ThePiXLNetwork

I loved this. Even bought the box set and the book! What heroes!!
Major Dick Winters led perhaps the most storied U.S. Army unit in all of World War II.
On D-Day, he and his "band of brothers" in Easy Company defeated a far larger German force and allowed the Allied advance to continue.
At the Dachau concentration camp, they liberated scores of Holocaust prisoners who'd endured months, if not years, of hell.
And as the war in Europe drew to a close, they captured Hitler's personal mountaintop retreat in southern Germany — then kicked back on his terrace in triumph while sipping champagne from his wine cellar.
But for decades, Winters was reluctant to even tell his story, lest he be called a hero.
Eventually, however, Easy Company's harrowing and courageous exploits on the Western Front in 1944 and 1945 would be immortalized in "Band of Brothers."
