AS PART of One Amazing Week', Visit London and the Tate brought Paint By Numbers' to Heathrow Airport so that passengers could re-create iconic artwork from Tate Collection.

On Monday February 23, a giant re-worked paint by numbers' canvass from the Tate Collection was erected at Heathrow Airport, allowing passengers the chance to help recreate one of the world's most famous paintings.

JMW Turner's Norham Castle, Sunrise was displayed in Terminal 2 at Heathrow Airport throughout the week, which concluded at 5pm on Friday as part of Visit London's One Amazing Week' which included a series of events being held to help celebrate London.

Passengers passing through the airport terminal could colour in part of the 2.3 x 1.7 metre canvass. Participants were given a commemorative poster and signed a guest book, that will later be exhibited at Heathrow with the completed painting.

Ruth Shaw, General Manager of Heathrow's Terminal 2 said: "We are fully behind this event which is all about attracting visitors to London. Heathrow is the international gateway to London and we are delighted to be able to give our passengers the chance to help celebrate the diversity, buzz and excitement of our capital city."

Will Gompertz, Director of Communications for Tate says: "Tate aims to raise awareness of art to as many people as possible.

"The works which have been selected for One Amazing Week' are some of the most famous works in Tate's Collection and are all currently on show at either Tate Britain or Tate Modern. We hope that members of the public enjoyed taking part and will feel encouraged to come and see the originals."

David Campbell, CEO of Visit London said: "London is the only city in the world that can give residents and visitors to the capital such a unique opportunity.

"Anyone in London during One Amazing Week' could participate in recreating iconic works of art making this a fitting celebration of London's thriving art scene."

Heathrow is one of four London locations chosen to help raise awareness of the Capital's thriving art scene.

By the end of the week, over 4,000 people, including hundreds of airport passengers had helped recreate some of the most famous images in the art world.

Other locations where paint by numbers' are located are Covent Garden Piazza with Modigliani's Portrait of a Girl, Czanne's Still Life with Waterjug at Waterloo Station, and The Chomondley Ladies at the National Maritime Museum, Greenwich.
