One and other  -   the fourth plinth

Robert Collins

On Saturday 29th August between 8pm and 9pm I took part in Anthony Gormley's One And Other project for the fourth plinth in Trafalgar Square.

I had a great time and managed to make a painting of the view across the square in my hour which I intend to sell to raise funds for my local art centre Under The Edge Arts which is run as a charity and is facing cuts in funding from the district council. www.undertheedgearts.org.uk

You can watch a recording of my hour here

Below is the oil painting which is 50cm x 60cm

The painting was open to bids for exactly one week from my time on the plinth. At the close of bidding at 9pm. on Saturday 5th September the highest bid was £600 which will be donated to Under The Edge Arts.
