Young artist has 'great flair'

Eight-year-old Bea Hemmings proudly displayed her work alongside much more experienced artist as part of the annual Lewes Artwave Festival.

Bea submitted a chalk drawing of a local coastal scene as well as a piece of pottery which was displayed in an open house in Sun Street, Lewes.

Barcombe Primary School art teacher Penny Edwards said Bea was a blossoming talent.

'Bea has always been artistic and she is really coming on showing a great flair for it and huge talent.

'She has always had the talent I just help her along.'
