Thank you for sharing our love of all things art. September has now set upon us with both beauty and chagrin. A mix of colour dappled across our forests but interspersed with bouts of rain and wind we feel we could do without. For your visual pleasure we offer a selection of art, and stories to reminisce. Our Gallery Exchange and Artist Corner feature some follow-up ideas from the last newsletter. Our Artist Success surveys are just being finalized and we hope you will soon be able to share your views. As always, we welcome your feedback. Email us.
