I only went and snagged myself a booth at the fantastic New Forest and Hampshire County Show last week!
I have produced some new original work featuring some of my favourite views in the area including The Needles, Wootton Bridge and the iconic New Forest Ponies...
Check out The New Forest Collection here.
Sneaking in to set up when it was quiet was a treat, the still forest surrounding this huge showground silent, just waiting for the hustle and bustle to begin!
I had a lovely time exploring the site whilst a selection of my family held the fort, footfall was amazing and so many lovely people took genuine interest in my work.
I even set up at the front of the stand to sketch some of the characters passing by!
It's a fabulous show with so much to see and do over 3 days, the craft tent was bursting at the seams and the weather couldn't have been better...
Unfortunately this didn't translate into as many sales as I would have liked but I have managed to get my work in front of a whole new audience and hopefully they will all check out the website from the comfort of their armchairs!
