The two Wolverhampton Art Gallery Still Lively groups tried their hands at sketching and papercutting – inspired by Jim’s own graphic work

“ Jim was fantastic. The groups enjoyed it so much. “
“ I didn’t think I would like this. I’ve not used a sharp knife for a

It’s waking me up and it’s opening my mind – I think that’s what I’m
trying to say. “
“ If you could bottle this you’d make a fortune. “
