I got quite excited recently, when I received an invitation to be part of the Hull City of Culture at the Central Library.
Although I have still no public funding for my project 'Families Matter', I was tempted, as the Library is within spitting distance of where the Turner Prize is going to be held next year.
That was until I found out that the gallery is also the café! So no room to run workshops and the paintings displayed would have to be very small.
I also pointed out that as I would be working in oil paint on my picture, 'Forget-Me-Nots', this was hardly conducive to eating fish and chips etc.
So no, I'm not going - unless they come up with a better offer.
