Art Auction 2013

This is my fourth canvas for the school Charity Art Auction and this time I have taken the plunge and gone for some degree of realism rather than my Mondrian-esque efforts of previous years. It is a painting of the Seven Sisters cliffs on a stormy evening (see below).

Please come along on Friday and bid ... all the proceeds go to the Vanessa Grant Trust to help the Gogar Primary School in Kenya.
