Quote of the week

Life isn't about finding yourself, it is about creating yourself'

If you cannot mould yourself entirely as you would wish, how can you expect other people to be entirely to your liking?

Brettenham Has Talent

Yesterday we went along to the Brettenham Has Talent art exhibition held in the Parish Church.

We arrived a little late, but were in time to enjoy the works on display, and also to admire the church. In addition to pictures by local artists, work by school children was on show, including a range of interesting decorated masks, with illuminating descriptions.

I particularly liked the understated pottery created by Fiona Camp, who lives in the village.  The giclee prints by Carol Saunderson were also of note, as were the watercolours by Michael Waldon.  I was much taken by a picture called The Red Umbrella, but unfortunately it vanished from the walls before I had a chance to go back and write down the name of the artist.  There was also a fine picture of a large lurcher, which, of course, I found very appealing.

Once we left the show the rain had stopped and we were able to enjoy a walk from the church to Ryece Hall across the fields.
