The house I grew up in was called The Old School House - here's the class of 1907

A class photo circa 1907 in front of 54 Newmarket, Louth - this was the old school house of the Wesleyan School - 28 children and the headmaster looking at us from the early 20th century - I hope they all had good lives

Found a pane of perspex in the car park behind Morrisons.

So I copied horses and ponies from a book about the paintings in the Lascaux caves onto the perspex with a black acrylic pen.

Then I hung the pane from my washing line.

Here - copies of cave horses against an overcast Lincolnshire afternoon.
