My memories of it are quite dim now. It was quite fast-moving with lots of location filming. Acting wise it's probably comparable with other series of the period such as Timeslip and The Tomorrow People. Probably the most memorable thing about it is the theme tune - Teenage Carnival by Keith Mansfie...

Super Channel (1987 - 1993) ran a lot of old British shows and I'm pretty sure that included Freewheelers. I remember being interested in seeing it again as I was only 10 when the final series aired.

For those interested, David Roach has identified the artist as Luis Arcas.

Excellent. Thanks for the quick response. I'll pass on the information.

Someone in the Today's Inspiration group on Facebook is trying to identify the source and the artist for some artwork they've acquired. The story concerns a girl called Mea (who knows about healing), her goat, Pad, a man called Brin and a sorcerer's stone. It looks like it might say "School Friend A...
