Mrs Ashcroft

What is your favourite book and why?

My favourite book to share with my children was  'You Choose' by Nick Sherratt. It is full of many pages full of illustrations of the places you could choose to go, or people you would like to be, things you would like to try. Each night the ideas my children talked about and imagined were so different and funny.

My favourite recent book is called 'The arrival of Spring'.

Tell me an interesting fact about yourself.

I love to paint portraits and landscapes in my spare time.

What was your favourite subject at school?

Art, of course!

Who would you most like to go for a coffee with?

David Hockney because he is my absolute favourite artist. I would have so many questions to ask him and I would just love to watch him paint.

If you were stranded on a desert island what one thing would you take with you?

Something to play music on, I am always listening to music. Or my camera to take pictures of everything you can see and make on a desert island.

What is your favourite colour?

Green

If you could be any animal what would you be and why?

A Golden eagle so I could fly over mountains and oceans.

If you had a time machine where would you travel to?

I would like to go back to 1920's when art, architecture and costume design and art was so beautiful.
