The love of gardening is a seed once sown, that never dies" [Gertrude Jekyll] Just in time for Spring "A Seed Once Sown" is coming to the Old Fire Station Gallery at Redcliffe. Artists Michelle Gratwick and Cecilia Hine have put together a show that represents their love of the natural world and highlights the importance of a healthy environment for the survival of all life on earth. Cecilia was introduced to the thriving Redcliffe art scene by Michelle who moved to Clontarf recently and as they are both fans of each other's work decided it was time to collaborate on a show and that the Old Fire Station would be the perfect location. Michelle believes that having friends who are also fellow artists, really is essential to living a creative life. "I would say we both have to paint. It's an impulse we could not ignore, and we support each other to keep going"
