In this month’s Hawkesbury Parish News, I’m celebrating the wealth of talent resident in our Cotswold village, and in particular artist James Nickells and his Global Portrait Project.
What is it that makes the residents of Hawkesbury so talented? Is there a secret ingredient in the local water that sparks creativity and talent?
Or perhaps there’s something about the parish that encourages those with special gifts and skills to move here. The general acceptance of exception and difference in our community is one of the many things that makes it a special place to raise our children and for individuals to thrive.
