Thanks for sending these across, Luke! The poem, 'Past', is phenomenal. I remember loving your ideas about your chosen painting ('The Last of England', by Ford Madox Brown) as you explained it in the session, and I think this finished piece really does it justice. Your use of space on the page is pitch-perfect for the concept and the story you're telling - the lines shifting right to left, and the white text on black, gives a sense of stretching the mind back into the past to catch snippets of fast-fading memories. I love it. 'Future' is a wonderful accompanying poem, switching the colours of black and white so the text represents the 'light at the end of tunnel', as it were.
As always, if you would like to share your pieces created from the session's activities, do email them to me at nellie.cole@sky.com.
