First World War 14-18 NOW Project

A four-year art project to honour the little-known role of artists in the First World War as part of a new £10million project.  Artists are to be honoured for their little-known role in the First World War as part of a new £10million project, which will tell the true story of the painters who camouflaged British warships.  The scheme, entitled 14-18 NOW, will see works of art, theatre and poetry commissioned across the country to “look afresh” at the events of the First World War and the impact still resonating today.

This story in the Guardian today links very well to a job we did for a client recently, who’s relative had created some touching and emotive watercolours while serving in the First World War.  We were asked to produce Fine Art Prints of the images for them to share with their family.  We would like to share these remarkable images with you…

BOA Young Music

We were recently approached by two very enterprising young men, Barnaby and Tom,  who were on work placement with Made in Bradford.  They were setting up a community based group of young musicians, BOA Young Music, covering all genre of music and were looking for someone to do artwork for a logo and offer any assistance on the promotion of their new venture…

We were pleased to help them and will continue to support local projects where we can.

We would like to wish BOA Young Music lots of luck and look forward to hearing how things are going for them over the coming months.
