Some snapshots below of the wonderful exhibition featuring 'The Arborealists' currently displayed at St Ives Society of Artists Mariners Gallery. Make sure to visit if you get a chance as this show is a 'stunner'.  I have enclosed quite a few pics for those who are unable to attend, but there's so much more to see and nothing takes the place of actually being there.  Enjoy.
