Chorley Contemporary Crafters

Went to my first meeting with Chorley Contemporary Crafters on Saturday. I had a lovely day chatting with all the lovely talented girls/ladies and they made me feel really welcome. I've always wanted to get into having a craft stall at an Art Fair but could never really find the time but the kids are getting older now and it's time for some ME time. I better get my arty crafty head on! Check out their blog here.

This is a painting I did a while ago. I scanned it into photoshop and cleaned it up but I still think it's a little dull in colour.
