As usual, the exhibition was held in the Conservatory, and included exhibits from local schools on the subject of "The Secret Garden", as well as entries from all over the UK to the Open Exhibition itself, which had the theme of landscapes.

I had entered two of my watercolours: Poppy Fields and Lavender Fields, an older work which is still one of my favourites. Given the amount of interest and the number of entries, I was extremely pleased that they were both hung. The whole event had been extremely well curated, with works of similar colours grouped together into a pleasing whole. It's a while since I visited an exhibition and this one was particularly enjoyable!

NB many thanks to the organisers who allowed me to take some general photos for this blog.
A very fine exhibition, probably the best that Luton Hoo have done so far, and it was a real achievement to get both pictures exhibited!
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful you participated again. And two pieces...! Sounds like a lovely event. I'm sad I can't see your work in person.
