Chaz Newton-Smith — 1 x 1 m canvas (sold for £2,000)

This 1 x 1 metre canvas by Chaz Newton-Smith was created as part of a commission for Cheltenham Racecourse and has now been sold for £2,000. I had the pleasure of spending the day installing the piece at the racecourse — an exciting day that included meeting many visitors and staff, and seeing the work take its place within the vibrant atmosphere of the venue.

• Families and casual visitors: attendees who come for the event atmosphere, food, music and general day out, not always focused solely on racing.
