We went to Falmouth today to see an exhibition of paintings by a local artist, Julian Christophers. I first met him when I was part of the art collective Fannie and Fox where I used to sell my stained glass work. I always found Julian’s paintings to be full of joy, full of colour and always smile inducing. I especially love his portraits. Today’s exhibition met all expectations.
Here are two of his pieces for you to enjoy but for those of my readers who are local, go and see them for yourself. You’ll come away smiling!

Afterwards we went into another local gallery where the view from their window is another beautiful piece of art.

Falmouth Week is coming up and the streets are full of bunting.

The artwork looks good, but it’s been years since I went to Falmouth. Where is the best place to park?

We generally park at the Maritime museum and walk up through town. It’s a gentle slope and an easy walk, if rather full of visitors at this time of year. If you go, please introduce yourself to Julian and tell him you are my blogging friend. 🙂
