I spent some of the half term painting a large map on the wall of the Cut gallery and arts centre in Halesworth as part of the Culture of the Countryside exhibition which is on at the moment.
Veronica wanted a map of the locale on the wall and as I live in Halesworth and have cycled up to all of the local landmarks I volunteered to do it. I took some screen shots off Google maps and pasted them together in Photoshop and downloaded shots of the landmarks. I printed off the images onto acetate at NUCA and then used an overhead projector to project the image and traced it onto the wall with acrylic paints.
The hooks and bits of card have messages on from people about what the countryside means to them. A number have picked up on the lack of the A12 and other main roads. The Godric cycle club have been over to see it too.
