25.01.2022 'From My Window' Artist Sneak Peak #4 with Heidi Tyrrell Heidi's creative portfolio is an outpouring of reaction, movement, observation, and flamboyant energy. The challenge to mediate relationships between colour, shape, line and tone with as little intervention as possible is a continual source of fascination, inspiration, and joy. This project is a chance for me to make connections with local business owners and the wider community through the shared experience of art artist, Heidi Tyrrell
