I've just come back from the private viewing of John Clare's pictures, in the little gallery at the back of Tinto House.
He said he'd decided to hold the private view just before the Festival, so that people would be able to come - he's tried to do it during the Festival before, and everyone has been too busy to come!
This year, he's selected pictures of the area of Greece he visits, the Mani, and the small town where Patrick Leigh Fermor, the travel writer, used to live, Kardamili. There are gardens, and olive trees, and blue, blue water. I really like the pictures he's done in pastels.
And it's all set within Tinto House's wonderful garden, carefully tended by Tim the Gardener.
