October

Nine of us attended the art group including one guest and one new member. Despite the number once again we had an almost spiritually calming two hours of dedicated silence apart from a break for tea. Next month we have the combined two groups art and craft which may be even more entertaining.
Painting of Emma Hamilton mistress of Lord Nelson by George Romney. She is immortalised in books and films as a great coutesan - the mistress of Lord Nelson born in 1765 into almost unimaginable poverty.
