Royal Institute of Painters in Water Colours

On Thursday, 11th April, one of our local art groups organised a coach trip to London for those wanting to visit the 207th Exhibition of the Royal Institute of Painters in Water Colours.  I left home at 7.30 am for the two-stage bus journey across town to get to the coach pick-up point at 9 am. We finally arrived at the Mall Galleries (right by Admiralty Arch) at about 11 am, only to be told we would have to evacuate at 11.30 am for fire practice!  Thank goodness it was a beautiful sunny day and it wasn't too long before we were allowed back in.

However, it was a really excellent exhibition and well worth the day's rush hour travelling.

The full catalogue can be seen here.
