If you cannot make the Club .... or even if you can ... why not follow the theme at home, then post the result on the Club's Facebook page ..... go on, be bold; you know you want to!!

ALSO ... Do NOT forget Jill's exhibition at St Chad's on the 21st Sept (see Jill for details) ... AND if you become aware of an Art Fayre somewhere local, we might think about setting up a stall to promo' the club .... maybe even sell a painting or three!! I am currently looking into a possible exhibition / fayre at The Minster for Nov / Dec.
