The thoughts, words and pictures of artist Anne House

A sunny day in Billericay

Life has been somewhat hectic since the exhibition was at Billericay but at long last I would like to write a few notes about it.

I travelled up for the day from Southampton with two friends, Simon who kindly drove us and Anne Drake, both of whom have been a tremendous help and prayer partners for many years.

We had such a warm and friendly reception with the opportunity to chat, pray and share stories of Gods kindness with many folk. I’d like to thank all the people from the church for all their hard work, committment and love during the week. Thanks also to Phil Tillotson who helped me for many hours getting the exhibion ready to send out and check it back in.

I love the way that the Lord brings people together in such a true sense of family. When people start making enquiries about hosting the exhibiton we feel almost strangers but very soon acquaintances and valuable frienships are formed.

It takes a committed selfless team to help it all run smoothly. What a blessing such friends are to me. Thank you all!

I was thrilled with the response from the many children who went to see the paintings and their remarks in the comments book. I hear that the team from the church at Billericay had some interesting conversations with them. Children have such wonderful perception because they’ve been brought up in a visual world. If you ever have problems trying to interpret a painting why not ask the nearsest child. Their insight might surprise and intrigue you!
