Harrogate

Chatting with some of my regular art course clients I discovered that they loved the idea of painting outside but wanted this to be in a private environment. The Harrogate Garden and Flower School offered to accommodate us and the first of what will be ongoing courses took place on 6 May 2017.

As a Yorkshire artist based in Harrogate, I am absolutely drawn to the iconic cherry blossom trees on the Stray and I set up my equipment to start painting. I was very lucky that the Yorkshire Post photographer happened to be passing as I was painting and took a great shot which appeared in his paper.
