Well, it's Good Friday and the last day of my Lenten Reredos at St Paul's Cathedral, Dundee, for another year. I look at it now with interest, forgetting that I painted it, and, as everyone says, it changes the feel of the Cathedral completely. Back to our usual golden mosaic by Salviati of Venice tomorrow!

Well, that's Clova Cottage registered for Perthshire Open Studios again this year 2 - 11 September. Pop the dates in your diary and come along - if the weather is as good as it was the past few years, we can have tea and cake in the garden! The photo shows my 'Palette for Irises'... I'll have a couple more palettes finished by September...
