Storehouse church
“The site of Storehouse church was, formerly, Brook Farm residential School. It comprises of many buildings and rooms which are available for use by the community. These were in need of a redecoration and an uplift. Chris worked with all age groups to produces and range of art pieces to suit the rooms both in style and purpose.”

These are 'double image' pictures which were done also within the Storehouse residency whilst working with young children and adults. The pictures were created using paint and pastels. The subjects were: chicken and egg, tadpole and frog and caterpillar and butterfly. After completion each picture was sliced and fixed at an angle, alternately so that two pictures could be seen as the viewer moved across the painting.
