Papergirl Newcastle
There are no guidelines as to format, subject matter or quantity, so originals, prints, photos, copies etc just get in touch, let us know you're on board and send stuff in. Each roll will contain several different works, meaning that each one holds a unique combination of works.
We plan to make this fun, laid back and quite the party... but we need your help. We need cyclists, artwork and general hands on help. If you want to get involved in any way, just drop us an email address.
For submissions, meeting our cycling needs or a general enquiry, email us on: papergirlnewcastle@live.co.uk
Best place to check in and keep updated is our FB: www.facebook.com/papergirlnewcastle

This time, its the turn of ‘Ric O’ Shea’. I’m not sure what I’m allowed to say about this chap… a man of many a moniker. Suffice it to say, he’s probably done as much for the arts/illustration scene in this city as anyone ever has, probably more!… he would never say that himself either! One of worlds nice guys… and to top it off, the kid can draw too!
Have a look at his work HERE and why not look at THIS too

Couple of wee pieces from Mani Kambo came through… locally based graphic designer who made her presence known with a bit of power badgemaking at the preview! Not sure of a blog/website… so if anyone knows one?…
Jonathan Branthwaite kindly rolled up to the house personally with a whole host of treasures and tales! Here is just one of the delightful stencil pieces that he has kindly donated to the cause. Check his design company here
