This is part of the Autumn exhibition at the lovely ''Angel Gallery', in Broseley, Shropshire, along with 20 other of my paintings, amongst dozens more, to do with climate change and extinction; feels a real privilege to use art for such a worthwhile cause! God bless, Andy

A real feel for Autumn with the golden colours , especially the splash of purple in the grapes.. great ...x

Thank you dear Linda, for that feedback; peace & love; God bless, Andy :) xx

Unbelievable Andy. I can almost see the heat haze, as it rises from the scorched earth.

Thank you dear Carole, for that brilliant, generous and thoughtful response; just fab!; peace & much love; God bless, Andy :) xx
