We had watched a programme called "Home is were the art is" and decided that we would look around galleries rather than buying a print from a shop. We were staying near Broadstairs and noted that there were a number in Broadstairs to look around so headed for the town. We soon came across this tiny gallery. I was keen to go in as the paintings on display looked like the type of art we liked. We went inside but decided that there wasn't anything that we thought would fit into the new colour scheme of our lounge. Vicki over heard us chat and said that she was capable of painting anything in any colour! Well between Vicki and us we came up with the idea and after showing her a rug we had considered buying, she became very excited and could see exactly what she wanted to paint. We chatted about her ideas, paid a deposit and left. Scary moment, we were only taking this risk after watching the tv programme and feeling brave. Well I'm so glad we trusted her. When my husband hung the paintings I cried with happy emotion. The paintings had captured all the colours we wanted plus every happy memory of our time on a beach. Please go and see for yourself, don't take my word for it and I assure you, you will be very glad you did. I just wanted to add this, I've been told that Vicki has been contacted by Home is where the art is, if chosen she will be perfect I'm sure.
