Visiting Yorkshire












I took these images while I was visiting my sister's new home in Yorkshire. The landscape is amazing and yes the grass is really that green.
On my visit I went to Leeds, a great city. I had a chance to visit the Craft Centre who have often shown my work, so it was good to finally see it in real life. Its a great gallery if you get a chance to go http://www.craftcentreleeds.co.uk/without_colour.html and is right next to the Art Gallery, there is so much to see, including work by Barbara Hepworth, Walter Sickert and Stanley Spencer.

I also visited Saltaire and Kath Libbert's Gallery http://www.kathlibbertjewellery.co.uk/ which is housed in a Victorian Textile Mill. http://saltsmill.org.uk/ Where you can also see stage sets designed by David Hockney.
