Dismaland Bemusement Park

Dismaland Bemusement Park

September 9, 2015 · by Helen · in Exhibitions, Inspiration

Here’s a very short post to rave about Dismaland, which I managed to get tickets for last week. If you haven’t heard anything about it, a brief outline would be to describe it as Banksy’s brainchild for a dystopian theme…

About Helen Davison Bradley


Based near Cirencester in the Cotswolds, I mainly work in oils and charcoal using time honoured techniques.
A keen advocate of the practise of drawing from life (believing it to be crucial in developing the observational skills of the artist), I feel that the interaction between artist and subject is the defining essence in the creation of a piece of art.

Brownhound? Huh?

Brownhound is the name of my web/graphic design business, which I have now stepped away from in order to concentrate on pursuing a career as a practising fine artist.
Having used the URL and email address for so long (and in honour of Sophie, the studio dog who inspired the name), I decided to stick with it as my point of contact. I'm glad you found me.
