Gallery Goodness, 16th August 2018
It’s a rainy Thursday morning here at ‘Sellers Central’. The dark grey skies hold the promise of bright green grass to come, but for now Paul’s workshop is an amber-lit beacon of warmth on a particularly damp day. It is, as ever, encouraging to know that many other workshops are also being put to good use, as evidenced by this collection of community gallery submissions from the past two weeks.
