Getting ready to hang some paintings at the wonderful Enys House affordable Art Exhibition. The show is on from Saturday 5th May until Bank Holiday Monday 7th May. An amazing, atmospheric setting for some great local artists to showcase their work. The Enys Estate has been owned by members of the Enys family since the 13th century, starting with Robert de Enys in 1272. Samuel Enys (1611-1697) was the first owner of Enys known to have left records of his family tree and notes

Have just hung some paintings up at the glorious Treen Cafe, they will be on show alongside the most amazing cakes, pasties and treats. Treen is beautifully placed near Porthcurno on the coastal path and the cafe is a fantastic pit-stop. ​www.facebook.com/helen.prudames https://www.instagram.com/?hl=en www.prudames6ag.wix.com/half-a-century​​ ​ #helenprudames #halfacentury #cornwall #oilpainting #abstractart #prudamesart #painting
