Protea

When I see Proteas, I am reminded of South Africa. A reminder that is bitter-sweet as I am far from those who mean a great deal to me.

The Protea flower is a South African national symbol.  So I was delighted to discover that a painting entered to the Redcliffe Art Society Members Exhibition had received First Prize in the Flora and Fauna section.

This Exhibition is at the Redcliffe Art Gallery, Oxley Avenue Redcliffe. I will be doing a duty there on Monday 17th June if you are interested in coming along to see the Exhibition.
