I brought my late Nan's brushes and pallette back from my Mum's to add to my art equpiment, and was given this lovely easel at Christmas. Soon I will have paint too. Exciting times ahead. Watch out those of you who can sit still: I may be asking for your time in return for tea and cake.

David Hockney received the Order of Merit, hurrah.
Also, remembered how much I love this...
