Talent Alert!!!!

What a privilege to showcase the fabulous work of Year, 7, 8, 9 and 10 at The Hatch for St Mary's Catholic College, Wallasey.

I'm blown away by the artwork of these young students and I can only imagine where they will go next. Kudos to their teachers and school for bringing this together.

Take a look at my walk through, but please visit today and tomorrow if you can. Only here for two days, but what a show!

Excited for tonight's preview of our mini exhibition, 'People &Places' by St Mary's Catholic College.

I'm blown away by the talent of these young students. Their work is amazing and you can view tomorrow and Saturday.

I will showcase a video tomorrow once all the parents and students have had their preview. Definitely some budding artists in the making.

Spotlight Saturday

'Sleep peacefully beneath the Magnolia tree'

Acrylic on Canvas by Marcia Crocombe

As we are all about the flowers this weekend this stunning piece jumps out.

It's a very calming piece and one that would fit any room.

Marcia's exhibition, 'Dreaming the Earth' finishes next Saturday the 30th of May. It's a fabulous show and extremely popular due to the diversity of work Marcia produces. Don't miss your chance to see the exhibition before it ends.

Come and see our lovely weekend flower pop-up from Jen at The Flower Hut plus new prints from Liz Lyons .

Beautiful Peonies, Snap Dragons, Sunflowers, Sweet Williams and more. The smell is wonderful.

In addition, we have this favourite piece of mine, 'Junko at the flower shop' prints are available and highly recommended.

The sun's out (finally!) and we'd love to see you today.
