Bluebell Wood teen wows with Star Wars art exhibition
Tim Haywood, who is supported by the children’s hospice, created Mandalorian, Death Star, Star Destroyer and Millennium Falcon designs.
The 19-year-old, from Rotherham, worked with North Anston artist James Brunt after they met at James’ forestry school and spent hours creating art outside using leaves, stones and other natural materials.

Tim organised the exhibition as part of his education, health and care plan (EHCP) with the help of Bluebell Wood family support co-ordinator Sherry Leigh.
He said: “Having an EHCP has given me the opportunity to learn in a manageable and personalised way when my medical condition would previously have stopped me.
“Art has allowed me to express myself in a way no other subjects have.”

“We can’t wait to see what Tim and James do next.”
