In April 2024 I was asked if I could paint a design on the children’s pool at Brightlingsea Lido. They wanted a design that would encourage the children to play in the pool and follow a trail. They have a sprinkler Octopus so I used this as my inspiration. I’m quite pleased with the result and hope it will encourage lots more families to come and enjoy the Lido this summer.
It was quite hard work to paint the pool as I had to kneel down or bend over a lot, I needed a nice hot bath when I’d finished, but I’m really pleased with the result and would love to do more projects like this.
The pool gets painted every year so next year it might be gone!
