Lillian Read
Trying to grow vegetables
12 x 10 inches | Artisan on watercolour paper
I have been pleased that the last few months were the growing season in the plant world. Waiting and watching growth snowballing – one thing after the other sprouting forth – and blossoming, creating food and shelter for wild life – surviving and maturing. Life goes on and on and on.

**Kaman Fung**
True light
20 x 25cm | Water mixable oil on canvas board
For this painting, I am particularly drawn to the gospel of John which spoke about the “True Light”, that “In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind”. Even during this pandemic Jesus is still reaching out to all. A life giving source lighting up people’s lives.

SOLD
Chris Greenshields
The Shoe Tree
*29 cm in diameter | Artisan on Acrylic base colour on Acrylic pad. Shoes painted separately and glued on with PVA.*
The words around this say Children grow out of their shoes and adult ones wear out but memories can remain within the strong branches of the shoe tree, a wonder of creation and continuity. There is now more than one shoe tree so the tradition is growing.

**Lillian Read**
The grass grows
10 x 8 inches | Mixed media on canvas board
The grass grows. Will I cut the grass today? The blackbirds like to walk on the cut grass. The grass grows. Will I leave the grass to grow? The clover comes through quick. The grass grows. The bees settle on the clover. The grass grows. My body lies on a green blanket.

SOLD
Dawn McKenna
Sunflowers
10 x 12 inches | Acrylic on canvas
Growth – this painting was originally painted just in yellow and brown, it looked very one-dimensional. I bought sunflowers to cheer myself up during lockdown and was taken with the variation in colour in the flowers, so dug the painting out again and added the colours and flourishes you see today.

**Lois Whitelaw**
Roses
10 x 8 inches | Artisan on canvas board
Roses for myself signify the start of Spring, seeing more birds, butterflies, bees and insects in the garden or countryside. The weather is warmer, the days are longer. Roses can always be given in happy and sad times of our lives as we grow and mature.

NOT FOR SALE
**Graham Innes**
Roots 2
Artisan on coloured A4 card
I started a second painting of roots which I liked even more, especially the way that I used blue in it. I am very glad that I have used a different style.

**Graham Innes**
Roots 1
Artisan on coloured A4 card
I have done a lot of painting from photos and so during lockdown I wanted to paint more from my imagination and with a rough, more unusual style. The subject of growth made me think of roots. I have enjoyed painting these roots in a way that I have not painted before.

SOLD
KM
Personal growth
10 x 8 inches | Oil on canvas board
Personal growth – the fierce female encouraging empowerment to others in society. Walking away from all her troubles and no matter what happiness in life you can start over.

KM
New growth
Acrylic on A4 paper
New discoveries are being made, I painted this picture as space is continuing to expand, growth isn’t just on earth it’s in galaxies far far away.

**Patricia Hunt**
My Neighbour’s flowers
8 x 11.5 inches | Derwent Artists’ pencils on Winsor & Newton Medium Surface Cartridge
I took a photograph of my neighbour’s garden, with their permission. I only noticed them when I joined others in clapping for the NHS. Flowers are still growing even when everything has stopped during lockdown.

**Carole Suchak**
KINDERDIJK

**Tracy Percival**
Growth
9 x 12 inches | Artisan on canvas
My inspiration for this Growth themed painting began on my mindful walks. I became aware of many beautiful plants that had seeded themselves and were growing out of stone walls. Imagine if my own thoughts were grown from a seed of such resilience, how beautiful they would be.

**John McCullough**
Growth
9 x 12 inches | Artisan on canvas
Growth. This represents growth of a seed dropped by the nearest tree.

**Pat Shield**
Growing Boys
21 x 29.5 cm | Watercolour
We haven’t seen our grandchildren since February because of Lockdown although our daughter regularly sends us photos and video calls. It struck me how much they’ve grown and just what they can do now compared to when we last saw them.

KM
Earth growth
Acrylic on A4 paper
Earth growth – after destruction and devastation of natural disasters such as forest fires nature can always regenerate, shining glimmers of hope for new life.

**Yvonne Marie Hinkesman**
Bread
12 x 16 inches | Artisan on canvas board
GROWTH; be it animal, vegetable or emotional, is essential to the well-being of The Earth. The staple food of life is bread. Corn especially grows to be cultivated and ground into flour, to mix, rise and bake into bread. Thus BREAD is the title of my work.

SOLD
Carole Suchak
Bamburgh Castle
*10 x 8 inches | Artisan on canvas board*

**Chris Greenshields**
A feeling of Optimism
10 x 8 inches | Artisan on Canvas Board
I was drawn to the vibrancy of these flowers. The one in the foreground in full bloom seems to be setting an example for the others to follow. Having enjoyed painting more often recently I am enthusiastic about creative projects going forward.

**Lorraine Udell**
*4lb 14oz*
30cm x 40cm | Acrylic and charcoal on canvas board
In this painting I wanted to convey a resilience which has grown over the years, from a tiny beginning to the present day. Lockdown has been full of drawing for me, which has moved me in a direction I didn’t expect, trying to catch emotion and relationships on canvas.

Personal growth since March 2020

There was nothing bright or special in the world’

This one’s called Rainbow City, and it’s all from brochures for local cultural venues and events.
It is a celebration of Newcastle’s colourful and diverse culture, with a special focus on black women and girls. The woman at the bottom is Ifeoma U. Anyaeji, whose exhibition I loved at the Baltic last year. It also includes pieces of a video still from ‘We Help Each Other Grow’ by the artist collective ‘They Are Here’ which I also saw at the Baltic.

**Chris Greenshields**
A deconstructed bouquet
10 x 8 inches | Artisan on canvas board.
In this painting there is an imaginary sky and foreground but the flowers depicted were real. I wanted to paint them in a fairly random order rather than in a vase.

Lockdown Kim
20 x 30cm | Alkyd fast drying oil paint on canvas
I have learned not to paint self portraits from a mirror anymore as I always end up looking sad, serious and old because I am concentrating so hard!! This was painted from a selfie taken on my phone. I wanted to paint this loosely and I was experimenting with colours that I don’t normally use for the background. I used the trick of putting the dark background next to the light side of the face and the light background beside the dark side of the face.

NOT FOR SALE
**Kim Todd**
Furo
20 x 30cm | Acrylic paint on canvas

Painting based on the grid
40cm x 50cm | water-mixable oils on canvas
This is one of 17 similar paintings I’ve done since we’ve been staying in. They are made with layers so that when you scrape back different colours come through. I think I find the process and the colours so absorbing that I’ve covered every canvas I had previously painted on and a few blank ones as well!

A View of Byker Wall

I recently attended the Aida opera performed by the Russian Opera House. The costumes and set design were magnificent. This painting is a likeness of the media profile.

The fine detail of the gown will be a good encouragement whist in isolation.

Painted in memory of my Mam who came from India. I visited India in 2008, and despite all the poverty and hardships people faced, the ladies wore beautiful saris of many colours. Considering what’s going on in our world today, the colours remind me of the rainbow which brightens up your day…

A village in Provence
10x8inches | Artisan on canvas board
This village in France was taken from a photo I took two years ago. I was drawn to it because of the way it leads you down the lane to the arch at the end. I bit off more than I could chew as it was far more complex than I realised especially trying to paint the cobbles and angles of the houses.

We hope this helps to motivate you to get creative. The works don’t need to be perfect or of a very high standard. We want to achieve several things by doing this:

1. Help you all feel more positive during this difficult time by being creative

2. Use your work to encourage and help others who might not be feeling too good

3. Help others think about isolation, art and emotions associated with that

4. Encourage you to experiment with media you have not used before

5. All keep busy and focused
