The Path to Tide Mill

I have not posted for many months on this blog , but after posting this painting on my regular blog , it made me think of The Tide Mill farm , we will all get together again for another year in a few month , I am looking forward the reunion of all the artists friends and meet the Bell family again and see the grandchildren a year older , we all have seeing them as babies .The time goes so fast , also wondered how many new animals will be at the farm , so much to look forward .....

The Organic Tide Mill

We are fortunate to be guests of this beautiful organic farm , we start our day with a cow parade , we visit the chickens and give some treat to the pigs on our evening walks ,
Fresh vegetables can be bought at Carly's stand ,and fresh milk from Aaron , How good is that!
The animals have been wonderful models to many of the artists .
most have been painted over and over.
