Thank you Thalia, Stephen and Alan for your encouraging comments! I had birds singing to accompany me so wasn’t totally on my own: also a couple of ladies on horseback passed by: tempted to try to include them but I’m not that quick!

I have returned to painting over the last few years having relocated from Cardiff to the Cotswolds in 2009 and joined the Guiting Power Art Group.
