“Give yourself a Hug” is a small painting (A5 postcard size) in acrylic and pastel. I have done it specifically for the Society of Women Artist annual exhibition June 23rd – 27th as we are offering postcard original works at a very low price to help with the cost of hiring such a lovely central […]
