Cafe Irie in Newquay is playing host to #dailydrawing, a selection of artworks by Victoria Jones from 04 July until 31 August 2014.
While travelling through Mexico and South America in an effort to further her career and learn about the cultures, traditions and history of the regions, Victoria hit upon the idea of a daily drawing.
It was the wisdom of none other than Pablo Picasso that guided Victoria onto the right path; in particular his quote “inspiration exists but it has to find you working”. In that moment she made a promise to dedicate time every day to her art. The result was one drawing a day posted on Instagram where her works of art now a have an appreciative and worldwide audience.
