The Big Issue's Street Art page gives talented, marginalised individuals an outlet for creative expression

‘Allsorts’
By Rene Robbins

The daughter of an architect, Rene is a sprightly 90-year-old, who enjoys sketching nature and wildlife, but finds herself instinctively returning to abstract geometric patterns and collage. She submits her artworks via the 240 Project, a West London arts and health activity centre for people affected by homelessness and exclusion.
