Portraits

A series of 3 pencil portraits, created by artist partnership, Sean McManus and Emma Withers.

Sean McManus and Emma Withers agree they have both enjoyed the last few months working side by side, talking about and looking at art! They share a love of drawing the human figure and faces. Their final work will be a banner celebrating their work together showing portraits of some of the people they have met along the way.

Step Up was our inclusive professional development programme for visual artists in Suffolk. Artists worked together in pairs, as equals, to: explore creativity; produce new works of art inspired by each others’ practice; develop new support networks; and benefit from artistic and professional development.
