What happened to September? It’s now nearly the end of October! The leaves are turning now and the trees around my studio in Sedbergh look beautiful in the sunshine and those in our garden in Manchester look lovely too. It’s been a wet month but these last few days have been bright and I’ve managed to get some clearing done on the allotment.
After working in pastels a lot over the Summer, I’ve enjoyed getting my watercolours out again. I’m the secretary of the Friends of The Whitworth. This is a thriving organisation and we raise a lot of money to help the gallery purchase new works of art. Recently I’ve produced some greeting cards of different aspects of the gallery and the Whitworth Park, where it is situated. I’ve done three so far. In this one you can only just see a corner of the gallery but it shows what a lovely aspect it has. The Cafe in the Trees is particularly popular as you can look on to this scene while having your lunch.
