Albion Way Spring/Summer Illustrations installations

A few Photos of the installation of the Spring and Summer illustrations at Albion Way, Horsham. including a news post from The District Post. 
'Local artist Katie Wells has brightened the Horsham scene with some eye-catching murals – at each entrance of the underpass connecting the town to Horsham Park. The spring and summery panels depict fresh, colourful scenes with delightful animals, known as The Townies and The Parkies, engaged in activities in the park, coolly dressed rabbits playing tennis, football and skateboarding and enjoying activities on the bandstand, too.' 
' Katie said: “This is my first major project and it was a very enjoyable process. First I produced the original illustrations in water colours on paper and then they were blown up and transferred onto metal signing material.” 22 year old Katie, from Wisborough Green, went on to say that she graduated from Bath Spa University with a degree in graphic communications. Why art and why animals? Katie continues: “I’ve loved art ever since I was little and, growing up in the countryside I love animals, too.” After acknowledging Beatrix Potter and Quentin Blake as her inspiration, Katie added: “I’ve also produced some alternative scenes for autumn and winter and the plan is to alternate with those panels when the seasons change.”' - Martin Read – Reporter - taken from The District Post Article.
