A Cornish residency

As I move towards becoming a full time artist my experience earlier this year of running independent workshops in Cornwall has really helped me realise that there are opportunities out there to do what you love doing, exploring new places and meeting and working with like minded people.

Daily Diary at Brisons Veor - Days 9 to 14

During my artist residency at Brisons Veor, Cornwall, in 2018 I published a daily visual blog on my facebook page www.facebook.com/PaulaDunnArtist. It was my way of keeping in touch with friends and family but I also had some really wonderful interactions with other artists and people living in and around Brisons Veor. The intention was to share progress with my paintings but also my adventures exploring the landscape and dealing with the ever changing weather.

Brisons Veor: A Cornish residency - Part 1

Two years ago I first heard about the artists residency at Brisons Veor in Cornwall and I knew I really wanted to go and spend the time to explore the area and paint to my heart's content. It wasn't all plain sailing though as Brisons is a pretty competitive place to get in to plus Cornwall is quite a drive from Saltaire, especially for someone who doesn't drive very often!  This is the first article of three which document my experiences of applying to and taking up a residency at Brisons Veor.
