Coming up at the next Artwalk on 30th Jul

In Memory of Joe
Biz Hallas

This exhibition records my first portrait painted in oils with a live model, it then goes on to record art work completed in the first few months of lockdown, up to the sudden death of my eldest son in May 2020. I was unable to complete a painting I was working on at this time and found it really difficult to connect with my art.

In July 2022, I decided to try to compete a sketch a day to get my mojo back - it worked. All the work exhibited were drawn / painted en plein air.

Platform 3   
Open 5pm-8pm

    This mixed media art exhibit was facilitated by the Outreach Team at Wakefield Hospice. The collaborative piece of artwork was created to provide an expression of belonging, friendship and sense of achievement for individuals within Wakefield, who are living with, or been impacted by life-limiting conditions. The group ran at The Art House for 10 weeks, and gave group members a chance to learn more around hospice and end-of-life care services available in the local area.
