very excited but also quite nervous.
on the Kent Cultural Baton website, when asked to give an overview of my exhibition, this was my response:
"'A Confederacy of Crows' is a series of works by young artist and illustrator Mark Sosbe. An exploration of his lifelong fascination with birds and nature, the work takes the form of a series of digital paintings which seek to combine the imagery of vintage bird illustrations with art nouveau inspired patterns."

The part about the life long fascination with birds and nature is particularly true, for I grew up watching David Attenborough programmes which fostered in me, and so many others, a love and respect for the natural world.
it is in light of this that I have decided to donate any profit made from my exhibition to the extremely important BBC Wildlife Fund (link here)
The BBC Wildlife Fund distributes money to conservation projects the world over. Every pound donated makes a difference, and if I'm lucky enough to sell any work or postcards, I can't think of a more worthy charity to pass it on to.
