Grateful – The Art of Letters

28 Nov – 20 Dec 2020

An online exhibition from Singapore

I was delighted to be asked to participate in this exhibition organised by Dorothy Lim. Participants were asked to exhibit works showing the things they were grateful for in the year of the Covid-19 pandemic.

The thing I have been most grateful for is our beautiful natural world. The birds, animals and flowers we saw, month by month, are the things I choose to remember in what has been a very difficult year for so many.

I’m told the ‘Grateful’ gallery will remain open for viewing after the exhibition ends.
