Dame Laura Knight
Have you ever been haunted by an item that you didn't purchase? It doesn't happen very often to me, but a few years ago I saw an amazing portrait of the artist Dame Laura Knight at a local arts trail. I didn't buy said portrait and really regretted it. Especially after being totally beguiled by an exhibition of her work last time I visited Cornwall. I went to the next two art trails, which are only on once a year and the talented artist Jo Morley, and portrait were never there. BUT as luck would have it I found the artists small card with her deatails on and managed to get in touch with her. Guess what? she still had the portrait, it was meant to be :).
Top is a photo of Dame Laura, second is my gorgeous portrait and the rest are examples of Dame Laura's work. If you don't know her work check her out, I suspect you will be beguiled too.

La Chimera
Wierdly strange and strangely wierd, refreshing, mysterious and tantalizing and not a little Felliniesque. We saw it at the cinema but I have seen it is now on some streaming sites. Wonderful, do try and see it, you won't regret it.
