Spring for #OnlineArtExchange to celebrate Dulwich Picture Gallery’s ‘Tirzah Garwood: Beyond Ravilious’🌷 🐑We’re sharing an uplifting wood engraving from FryArtGallery – Olga Lehmann created one for each season, much like Jan van de Velde did in his etching series in our collection.

Lady Barber passed away in 1932, but her extraordinary legacy endures. She and her husband entrusted their entire estate to establish the The Barber Institute which would not exist without their generosity. Thank you to all our generous legacy pledgers. birmingham.ac.uk/alumni/giving/…

A lunchbreak with a difference... Thank you The Barber Institute for putting on a 'Walk & Draw' for staff and students. I got out in the sunshine, reconnected with a colleague and took notice of the beauty I'm surrounded by every day 🌞
