Exhibition Opening
Rivermead Gallery: Just Imagine Illustrators Group
19 March - 27 April 2018, 08:00 - 18:00
Chelmsford campus
This free exhibition features a variety of work and includes both original artwork and high-quality Giclee prints.
The Just Imagine Illustrators Group are a group of freelance illustrators who meet regularly in Chelmsford to share and discuss their work and ideas, including both published and self-initiated projects. They have been gathering since meeting in 2010 at the Just Imagine book shop.
During each meeting, the illustrators critique each other’s work, share new ideas and also set a new illustration brief to work on. They meet regularly, and new people are always welcome to come along. Please contact Diana Mayo for further information.

"A man in the wilderness said to me, How many strawberries grow in the sea? I answered him as I thought good, As many red herrings as grow in the wood."
It's Yawning Yoga's Birthday!

"Elements of yoga practice including stretching, posture, and breath work, are introduced through elegant artwork and poems like Mountain (Tadasana) and Seashell (Balasana), to help children—and their caring adults—ready their bodies for a restful sleep."
