Wednesday I took my Grandparents to the 'Through Our Hands' exhibition at the Royal Pump Rooms Gallery, Leamington Spa.
I am currently becoming more and more involved with drawing with stitch, and so thought the artistic-quilting exhibit might give me some inspiration, and names I could use.
Well it certainly inspired me! And even opened my 86 and 89 year old grandparents eyes to what else art can be, and gave them ideas for art they might still be able to do.
The image above is Annabel Rainbow's 'Switching Off', which is just one of her extraordinary pieces included. Photographs really do no justice to the work on display at the exhibit, you really must see it up close to see and feel the power of the art in the pieces.
I will certainly be going back over the next few weeks, even though it's a small exhibit - I could spend the whole day there if I could!
