Helena said: “We are an informal group of artist friends of varying ages living in Strangford.

“Some of us are professional or semi-professional and some are amateurs, but all of us are motivated to express ourselves through art. 

“We portray a wide range subjects and work in various mediums, be it in oils, watercolour, pen and pencil or sculpture in bronze, papier mache and other mediums.

She added: “We are supporting the charity Air Ambulance NI, a very important service especially for all who live, work and do sport.”
