Amidst the madness of work I’ve tried to do some sketching this year after realising that ALL of my creativity had become work related. I didn’t quite fill the sketchbook, but it’s been fun trying. #Not4WorkSketchbook darrellwakelam.com

During 2023 I've worked with thousands of kids, of all ages. We've made many things, forests and foxes, crocodiles and kings, lions and lighthouses, but most of all, we've made memories. I hope these memories are filled with positivity, because all art begins with enjoyment. 🙂

As we move into another year of delivery, let's take another look at our Year in Review, bringing you the art, places and ideas that have made 2023 a year to remember! Read online: ow.ly/bRmH50Qi101 #MeadowArts #ArtPlacesIdeas
