Lulu Horsfield is the Creative Director at Rock Paper Scissors, a local community arts organisation. She has been teaching art and design to all ages for 20+ years and has worked as a graphic designer and illustrator across fashion, textiles, editorial, music and film. Lulu works with paper, print and pattern, using her own hand painted surfaces to collage with and explore shape, colour and texture. Sometimes these become textile designs, illustrations, moving images, typography or exist only in her sketchbook. She is passionate about working with young people, providing a creative and inclusive space for all to shine.
The Blank Page Project is an exciting new programme providing free high-quality creative activities for young people, run by local artists in libraries during the school holidays. Funded by the Department for Education’s Holiday Activity Fund.
