The UKSA Secret Art Show and Auction
I had the pleasure of donating two original watercolour paintings to the first UKSA secret art auction which was held in the pavilion at Cowes Royal Yacht Squadron last weekend and I was so happy to hear that all 124 artworks donated had sold! How amazing! Each postcard sized piece of art was priced at £100 each and there was also some larger paintings up for auction and the total raised was an incredible £30,000! Can you spot mine?
