Art success

My friend Linda Adams won the prize for her art in Cranleigh today 5th April and we are delighted! The Art Centre displayed the work of the Maritime Arts Group in this beautiful centre. My friend Valerie Wells travelled up from Chichester to meet us there. We mingled with the friendly group of those of us who had been invited to this private viewing. Each painting had something special to offer. The standard was high and so it was very difficult to prejudged which one would be selected as a winner. Maybe, I am biased when I say that there is something very fresh and inviting in my friend's protrayal of boats but I am delighted that her's was singled out and acclaimed as special. Well done Linda Adams!
Linda, Valerie and I toasted Linda's success in the'Asks'restaurant! We sat and chatted and put the world to right over coffee and tea. Reluctantly, Linda eventually drove home but Valerie and I stayed and caught up with what had happened to each of us since we last met. It's my turn to pay for the meal next time Val!
