This
is becoming a tradition in Bristol (England). After a trail of Gromit sculptures in 2013 that helped to raise £5 million
for Bristol Children’s Hospital, there is a new art trail of 70 giant painted sculptures of Shaun the Sheep,
another character created by Aardman.
The
sheep, each sponsored by a company, have been decorated by celebrities and
designers and dotted around the City. You can see them until the 31th August.
At
the end of the summer, they will be auctioned to raise money for sick children
in hospitals across the UK.
Last
week-end, I had the chance to see a few.
