Borrow Our Walls Artists 2024
January 8-27th - Andy Roberts (continued from 2023)
USA 1921 and Fred R Barnard introduced the phrase 'a picture is worth a thousand words' into his advertising campaigns, thus bringing it into modern use.
It should follow then that a thousand words must be worth a picture. If only it were that simple. My images take considerably more than Fred's 1000 as well as plenty of reading, tearing, slashing, chopping, coffee and Spotify.
There are two possible conclusions from all of this :
Either
- Fred was bad at maths
Or
- I'm using the wrong words
See a selection of Andy's collages throughout May at the coffee house.

1 May- Ren Dorman
A young artist who we found drawing in the coffee shop and invited her to exhibit.
‘My name’s Ren and I’m 19 years old. I’ve been drawing ever since I can remember because I love art so much. My artworks mainly consist of graphite and charcoal hyper realism pencil drawings which I also do commissions on. I’d love for art to be a part of career!'
