“Flaxton in Spring” Unframed by Gill Wroe
Inspired by the success of the auction of the ‘Snowy Flaxton’ watercolour, in December, I’ve spent recent wet days painting ‘Flaxton in Spring’, which I wish to auction with, once again, ALL proceeds being donated to the Flaxton Community Hall Fund.
The frame (see below) is approximately 31cm x 38cm (12 x 14 inches)

Happy bidding!
