From Work Experience To Published Artist!

A big congratulations to A Level student, Aaban, whose incredible talent has led to the creation of a commissioned graphic novel!

While doing work experience at Beaford Arts, staff noticed Aabanโ€™s exceptional drawing skills. Now, his adventure story, The Widening Gyre, inspired by North Devonโ€™s landscape & folklore, is live on Beafordโ€™s website!

Aaban takes inspiration from photography legends James Ravilious & Sir Roger Deakins, and heโ€™s following in their footsteps!

With his A Levels still to complete, Aaban is balancing studies while working on his novel. His dream? To work for Marvel Comics one day! His journey proves that passion + opportunity = something amazing!

Read Chapter 1 for free on Beafordโ€™s website! And stay tuned for an exhibition of his work next year! https://beaford.org/thewideninggyre
