Sean Hanna also gave them an insight into what it takes to run a successful business, and how business and creativity work together. Melissa said about the day: "We learnt not only technical skills of avant garde work, but also the practicalities of running a business. The day was packed full of information and it was great to see how different techniques can spark an idea, which then develops into an image. Skyler's creative energy has certainly rubbed off on us and we are feeling every inspired!" [hji-gallery-legacy]
