Natural Connections

 A great day, attending and contributing to the 'Natural Connections' day at the National Trust's Allan Bank property in Grasmere....and what a fine building it is! After an introduction to the watercolours of Beatrix Potter, by the Armitt Trust, we were able to look at the original artwork - wow! Then after a really enjoyable and accessible 'lichen walk',  I led a fungi/lichen inspired lino cut workshop - there was some great work produced and it was really nice to work with a range of organisations where participants all had a common interest.
