Our latest Exhibition is by Exmouth artist Anna Fitzgerald. Anna is responsible for the highly successful Exmouth Arts Trail and a number of artist lead workshops and exhibitions around Devon. Her work is highly illustrative and in the past has included many references to the landscape, flora and fauna.

I cant take any credit for it (apart from the hours it took to hang her in the window) Shelley did all the making and painting. I think she did a great job. Already planning next years entry....?
