Taking part in the event for the first time is the Green Dragon Rare Breeds Farm and Eco Centre at Hogshaw near Quainton, where a group of artists will be located from Saturday June 6 through to Tuesday 16.
One of the artists who will be located there is Hilary Audus who worked on Raymond Brigg’s incredibly popular Oscar nominated animated film The Snowman.
Recently she has started to sculpt. All her pieces are based on the natural world, especially that of birds. She is inspired by primitive sculpture and the simplicity of Inuit art.
