• Through setting up my instagram (@gleamedart) I was approached by two students at Leeds University, Stephanie and Safi, to offer my work to the student magazine. I had no idea it would be making the front and back cover of this issue!
• The Gryphon (@thegryphon) has an arts magazine supplement called "In the Middle" (@itm_thegryphon) and issue 2 focuses around disabled students, artists and creators and their experiences to open up a more inclusive conversation across student life, arts, culture and fashion.
• I feel extremely proud to represent Leeds Arts University as a mature blind student and I'm very proud to have my art work as the focal point of the magazine which was so unexpected.
• It's incredibly valuable and powerful to have my abstract expressionist work framed in a context for the first time.
• This has allowed networking and collaboration across the universities and I will ensure to keep a professional relationship with these instagram pages incase more work is ever asked for in future.
• I will be interviewed by one of the writers of their accompanying website, English Literature student Phoebe, very soon!
• This makes me incredibly excited for future endeavours. Where else can my work be placed and exist within? Product packaging? Canvases in exhibitions?
