                    A look back at what we got up to during 2023 in the gallery & around Cornwall.  An enjoyable year of exploring new ideas.

                    After a three day course with Hilary Jean Gibson, through the St Ives School of Painting, I created a sketchbook of observations made at the Barbara Hepworth Sculpture Garden.  Here I am sharing some of the pages & ideas.
