Thank you, Frank!

This is excellent Jenny, and congratulations on some very well deserved recognition.

Following encouraging comments when I posted this on the gallery earlier this year I decided to enter it for the 2021 ‘Sketch for Survival’ competition and was delighted when it was chosen for inclusion in their exhibition currently taking place at the OXO Gallery in London. All work has been donated by the artists and is being auctioned in aid of schemes for the preservation of endangered wildlife. A virtual tour of the exhibition is available at bit.ly/OXOGallery if anyone’s interested in seeing it.
