The Submissions from the Tyne are all mine all mine

After talking to an old college friend over reading week about my project I have received a flurry of new submissions thanks to her emailing her University mailing list in Newcastle with details of my project, at the beginning of the project I set myself a realistic target of 20 portraits for the project by the March 1st deadline and a week away I only need 3 more to reach this target, I am still amazed by the quality and variety of the contributions so far and i am pleased that I haven't found the need to discard any image yet as the quality and creativity has been superb.
I have found with the recent submissions from Newcastle that a lot of them have come from mature students which itself has given the submissions a different style to my previous entries, with artists experimenting with different mediums and ways of presenting themselves.
