A great way to spend Fireworks night inside, in the warm, with hot drinks and snacks, creating our own artworks. They were quiet, but certainly not understated. All vibrant, each telling a story, and exuding the personality of the creator. Let's get into them...


Red background with a sparkle bright background inlay. Top right; Rocket fireworks stripey red and yellow and blue and yellow, small gold and yellow stars. Bottom left, colourful firework display with gold and silver stars
Donna's Firework Display

Donna - A spectacular display of colourful fireworks was created using mixed media and imagination! Love the sprinkle of stars added together with the pencil line marks, giving them movement. Tissue paper, pre-cut gold and silver stars, felt-tip pens and graphite pencil were used.


Red background with a sparkle bright background inlay. Nine photo image montage of a man wearing glasses , various bright coloured bonfire and firework themed backgrounds surround each image
Phil's Firework, bonfire and light display

Phil - A fantastic, colourful piece of digital art, cleverly created. Phil used the Toon.me app to generate each image and then put the whole compilation together on a different application, Inshot a great result.

Top left; Guy Fawkes character, wearing a green hat and darker green clothing, yellow head, arms and legs, bonfire bottom corner yellow and orange flames. Bottom Right; Fireworks at the bottom blue and red. People watching to the left and colourful firework display centre, green, red, yellow, blue, silver and a bonfire
Noor's Firework and Bonfire Night

Noor - Two amazing artworks, imaginative and full of colour. The top left picture shows Guy Fawkes and the bonfire. That fire looks fierce and is producing a lot of smoke, awesome! Drawn using soft pastels. The bottom right picture shows a crowd of people gathered to watch a bonfire and a dazzling fireworks display. Soft pastels, Sharpie Pens, coloured pencils and graphite were used to create this artwork.


Red background with a sparkle bright background inlay. A black silhouette of The Houses of Parliament viewed through a black archway. Parliament is on fire, orange, red and yellow flames a night sky
Barbara's Bonfire Night

Barbara - An eerie but stunning painting which shows the Queen Elizabeth Tower, in which is housed Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament ablaze. Barbara explained she decided to turn Bonfire Night on its head and have the den of iniquity, which is the House of Parliament, burning, rather than Guy Fawkes, as is traditional. The tiny specs of black ash floating in the air and the reflection of the flames in the River Thames are great touches. Water colour paints were used.


Red background with a sparkle bright background inlay. Top; Black background, brown leaves clustered together in a bonfire shape, starry sky and a white crescent moon. Bottom; Black background, fireworks in red, orange, blue and violet exploding in the sky looking up from between castle turrets, yellow lines
Andy's Bonfire and Fireworks night

Andy - Fabulous mixed media art on black, which really brings out the bright colours of the firework displays. The top picture was made from foraged leaves arranged to form a bonfire shape, and a gentle crescent moon is shining on a clear, starry night. The bottom picture shows an explosive firework display. Great use of materials, soft pastels and leaves.


Red background with a sparkle bright background inlay. Dark silhouette of a person, stood behind a fence on a veranda, foreground, looking at fireworks in the sky, pink, orange, green, white and gold. These are reflected onto the small town and treeline landscape below
Sarah's Firework display

Sarah - 'Fireworks' watching from afar. Lighting up the sky and breathing in the colours while reminiscing. A scene painted from memory, building upon my imagination, thinking of life standing on a veranda, overlooking a small town. Love the lights in the town and specs of reflection in the wooded area on the hillside in the distance with this painting. Painted using acrylics, freehand, no sketch.


Can you smell the smoke and hear the crowd with the energy exuding from some of these artworks, as well as the connections we have and the nostalgia we feel with events from the past? So many different ways this topic was explored, and so interesting to hear about everyone's experiences while talking in the art session, an incredible evening.
