"Whether the weather be fine, Or whether the weather be not, Whether the weather be cold, Or whether the weather be hot, We'll weather the weather Whatever the weather, Whether we like it or not!"

This poem from my childhood came to me last night as friends and art lovers alike gathered at the gallery for Joy's exhibition opening despite the cold wet night.  We were surrounded by the wonderful colour and warmth of Joy's works and wowed by their strength and light.  Brad Hammond opened the show and after we sat in the gallery for dinner with Joy surrounded by the works.

I recommend that if you missed the opening you come out to the gallery over the next few weeks to see for yourself these wonderful paintings.

 Libby, Joy and Brad
