"The artist...is also a born adventurer. His explorations, unlike those of a tourist, are rewarded by the discovery of beauty spots unmentioned in the guide books, and with tireless curiosity and an exceptional proneness to wonderment, he will come upon objects of remarkable interest overlooked or even shunned by more disciplined observers."

Augustus John, R.A.

Another nice one which brings back memories for me. I like the colours.

Hi Keith

This is based on a visit a couple of weeks ago. Hopefully when the Tour de France riders come down this road in July the weather will be a bit better.
