Hi Will,

That's a very nice collection and really classy presentation too! :clap:

I can only guess at the amount of work you must have put into getting it all together.

May I wish you a successful exhibition.

Thanks for your comments :D I also have another gallery, but this is definately the smarter of the two. Along with a busy framing workshop it does keep us on our toes!

Having finally refitted our spray booth last week, a new web site and embracing social media have finally reached the top of the "to do" list although as yet I'm not sure how or who is going to do this.
