The Vermeer exhibit at the Fitzwilliam was wonderful, I am so pleased that Joan suggested we see it together. Strangely the painting that captivated me most in the whole exhibit was not a Vermeer, although his work was a total treat to view, but a painting by Esaias Boursse entitled 'Dutch interior with woman sewing'....I could have stared at it in awe for hours.
The invigilator kindly allowed me her chair for a few moments so I could make this sketch, I couldn't resist the guy on the left with the flowing hair and jacket thrown over his shoulder, the two seemed to merge.

My dear friend Joan came for a few days recently so we could visit the Vermeer exhibit at the Fitzwilliam museum together. We spent our first day catching up and on the Thursday we headed off to Cambridge.
We popped into Browns for a cream tea late afternoon before heading back into the Fitzwilliam for another browse.

A New Year Begins

...With a trip to Arbuckles for dinner (a chance to wear my new coat for the first time) and some serious re-charging of our batteries with some old classics on DVD.

Another new cup and saucer I was lucky enough to receive this Christmas, this time from my youngest Son Harry...It is so pretty and my Italian blend tasted delicious from it as I lounged on the sofa all wrapped up with a cosy blanket and the new cushions I purchased to brighten up the lounge.
Gotta' love red nail varnish on the toes!
