Georgie Roy is a passionate and inspiring Artist based in Gosfield, Essex. "Everything I do is Art related and encouraging others to be creative. My work is very varied in subject, style and medium which is dictated by however I first see any subject, resulting in taking a large variety of materials when working outside. Although I work with all subjects my favourites are Traction Engines and Nudes."
Georgie is well known in the Braintree and Halstead districts for her Art Exhibitions, teaching Art Classes, School Residences, Children's and Adult Workshops, Community Art Projects and organising the Gosfield Scarecrow and Goose Trails.
