Welcome to the forum

Welcome to the SP8 of the art forum.

Through co-ordinators and the art community we hope to extend the reach of the foundation via this website so we would love to hear your ideas.


What a brilliant idea the Foundation is. I think it's going to be a fitting tribute to Mark and a really positive way to ensure that the passion he had for art continues to influence upcoming generations.

This is a FANTASTIC idea and the most fitting tribute to a guy who got all forms of creativity out there.

Would love to be part of its future!

Dear Janie

Any chance you could let me have your phone no and address? Also would like to know how you think you would like to help the Foundation. We are looking for people to fill various roles ie admin, Regional co ordinators, publicity, fundraising etc and wil be holding regional meetings soon in order to meet potential helpers. Would you be interested in coming to one?

Hiya Everyone

Can't wait to hear about everyone.

I think that the Foundation is a wonderful way to remember Mark. He inspired so many people young and old.He was certainly an inspiration to my daughter and myself. Love from Louise S x

I think the Foundation is a perfect tribute to Mark. There are so many talented children out there and this way Mark's enthusiasm and passion for art will continue to inspire many.

Mark was a big part of my childrens love of art and I would love to get involved and help out in any way I can.

I have only lived in this area for a couple of years but have found there to be a huge love of art. My daughters primary school even held an exhibition of their work, such was the high level of talent. It was fantastic!

I think this foundation is a fantastic idea! And a fantastic way to remember the great legacy of Mark. Me and my family always loved to watch Mark on smart and see it saw it. THANK YOU MARK! Mark inspired me to do what i do today and i would love to be part of the foundations future.

I think this is also a great idea,
Mark was my favourite presenter on smart.
I got a chance to meet him at butlins about 2 years ago,
Mark also inspired me to carry on drawing and i draw pictures everyday.
