I have recently joined Leamington Studio Artists, an art community based in Leamington Spa in Warwickshire and I have been so impressed by the quality of work being shown along with the passion and the drive.  The original gallery is still housed in the super cute Park Keepers Cottage in Jephson gardens, and they have now opened a second venue in the heart of the town called 'The Art Room'. A gorgeous colourful unpretentious space with a welcoming attitude to all, selling a wide range of artwork in a variety of genres.

I will be in Leamington Spa on the 3rd December at All Saints Church taking part in Artfest, an wonderful art fair and Christmas tree festival combined. Im hoping it will be as festive and as magical as they say. time is getting on and this year I am adamant I will have it all...
