I love walking round art galleries, not keen on the modern abstracts but go more for the detailed paintings.
I have two favourites at home the first I had done as a gift for my late partners birthday it was of the cottage where we lived. The artist painted it from a photograph I gave him
The other is actually one of my late mother in laws - it's only a a Pears one fromyears ago and called The Long Bill - portraying an accountant sat at his desk with a bird with a long bill looking over his shoulder. On our recent visit to Newcastle the same picture was on the wall in Beamish.
