Stable to see an exhibition by Leslie Slyght in this magnificent setting. Look at that, that's Hameldon Hill over there. Very appropriate artwork in here. Beautiful landscapes, mostly oil on linen. Very nice moody Southwest Dorset pieces. And she's done this series of really nice trees recently as well. Quite small canvases. Really nice touch to them. This one again, great subtlety. Very much the feeling around proportion. Charmouth, and then inland where she lives. Wonderful glowing colors, particularly sunsets. These skies in this one, a little bit of light breaking through, some rain. Slide from there, looking in from the sea. It's a very delicate touch, very subtle. Back to that big one in a moment because it's one of my favorites. Yeah, these are very, very soft. I think this exhibition goes on another week. And onto one of my favorite pieces. Coming along here, sun reflecting off the sea, looking down the valley. It's a really great piece. And it's sold, which it deserves to. So yeah, there we are. Leslie's Flight and the old stable in Chartoakford, which is kind of near Blandford, between Blandford and, um, Shaftesbury. Yeah, I do like that.
