Artwork description:

We are so lucky to have free education available to every child. And now free books and equipment too! No longer will incredulous parents cry "Your calculator cost HOW MUCH!!?" This box is under a Hazel tree, which is strongly associated with wisdom and knowledge in Irish mythology. I hope the art inspires passing schoolkids to ask questions and i've included a favourite number for messers everywhere!

Biography:

Facepainter, Balloon Artist, Scouter, Tour Guide, Crafter, Mammy. I wear many hats! I love to entertain and tell a story with my art.
