Inspiring through my making

A photo of Thompson Hall painting the colourful background of his latest piece. He is adding pale blue and peppermint zig zag squiggles in expressive brush strokes up and down his large landscape canvas
a drawing in coloured pencils showing a group of people holding a banner saying Scrap work Assessments. A woman is shouting through a loud haler and two men have their fists raised shaking them above their heads. The background is messy, chaotic zig zags created in coloured pencils in many different lines, all going in the same diagonal direction. This is Thompsons response to his leadership qualities of inspiring through being a political artist. He said he is leading the Sync artists through his own example of making his art.

Here is an example of me starting a new painting which is inspired by my own sync leadership program.  I have decided to make a series of artworks based on the single line drawings I started when working on my Malaysian paintings. The new series are about various political issues that affect aspects of my life. These are from personal experiences as well as news headlines that I see everyday in the UK. There are lots of changes happening in the UK, I wanted to highlight some of them in my own way.
