Although my trip to Cornwall for the opening of my Surfers exhibition at Polzeath was brief and exhausting; I've returned a bit more grounded and inspired.
The paintings were really well received - John and Steve, the owners of the 'Salt Water Bistro', were thrilled with the work and many were sold or reserved (check out the surfer paintings for more info www.melaniemcdonald.co.uk) . I felt I'd accomplished what I'd set out to achieve, which was a small miracle as stress levels have been high since R. was diagnosed with cancer this February.
