Since last October I’ve been putting together a funding application for Lincoln Artists’ Network for a collaborative project with Apparatjik for the next Digital Arts Festival in Lincoln in 2013. I’m applying for a local arts grant, St.Hugh’s Foundation Arts Award, the deadline of which isn’t until the end of this month, and I’ve been taking advice from a mentor for feedback as it has developed. I finally sent it off yesterday while I was feeling confident, and will find out if I’m successful or not at the end of next month. If I’m not successful, I’m looking into the International Collaboration Grant as an alternative.
I’ve submitted a postcard for the 2nd Twitter art exhibition in Moss, Norway – well why wouldn’t I, it’s i Norge, and I had a scribble of Morten Harket First Thing In The Morning just sitting in my sketchbook for no good reason at all! It’s also to support the Women’s Crisis Centre, so a good cause.

My comic raised £10 towards Barnados in Brighton, and was bid by someone that really appreciated my work. The total raised was £1764.61 https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=1834858&l=a0cbeab9d2&id=134099879939952
Very pleased this morning to find a folded envelope in the letterbox addressed to Helen Dearnley Fine Artist, to find it’s a cheque for an illo commission for Mobile News magazine :-)
