Hi all, one for the arty types.
I have just been invited to take part in a sculpture competition in Gloucestershire, details below. I visited the place today and the owner gets my vote, it is £10.00 to enter 3 pieces of work and he asks for 10% commission on any sales which is very reasonable.
Below is the message he sent to me, the weird spacing is from his end.
He has asked if people are interested can they get in touch asap.
