Perthshire Open Studios 2016

The exhibition of artwork and crafts in Spittalfield, Perth & Kinross was a resounding success. In early September our group SEVEN welcomed over 400 visitors to the charming village hall. Paintings, linoprints, bronze sculptures, ceramics, hand turned wooden bowls, pebble/driftwood pictures and fragrant organic beauty products garnered admiring comments, sales were made and commissions placed. We put a lot of time and energy into this event – interesting conversations and the satisfied faces of our visitors made it all worthwhile.

Candlelight Dinner

Another one of my paintings prepared for Perthshire Open Studios 2016. It is a still life, called Candlelight Dinner.

The viewer is invited to find their own stories when looking at the image.
