The weather was glorious and the turn out was fantastic. Park and Tilford Gardens is really the perfect setting for our Art In Bloom showing. A few shots from this afternoon.

Painting by Diane, Cherries Jubilant.

The show proved to be tiring for one little Maggie May, Sherrill McCall's baby dashund.
