Last week I was in Leicester and I visited Leicester Museum where they are hosting a fantastic exhibition of Picasso ceramics.
The collection belongs to Lord and Lady Attenborough, and is dedicated to the  memory of his daughter and grand daughter who died in the Tsunami in Thailand on Boxing Day 2004.
The ceramics really are something. Most of these pieces are beautiful editions, with two completely original pieces made by Picasso – they are worth a visit!

the bowie gallery currently has a little bowl made by Picasso’s muse and model Lydia Corbett, aka Sylvette David. Gotta be worth a flutter!
OTHER NEWS
English Wine Week is being celebrated from May 28 – June 5 and we will be setting up a small exhibition in  Sharpham Winery. Original prints by Hilary Soper and Anita Reynolds, plus one or two other pieces. Sharpham will be celebrating with lots of events this week so do go along and enjoy what’s on offer. I can recommend the al fresco style cafĂ© without any hesitation!
