16th Burnham Art Trail
Saturday 20th June to Sunday 28th June 2020
Day 2 Sunday – Art on the Quay
Virtual Art on the Quay today…
This is generally a very busy day for us artists, especially Sue Spiers who does a brilliant job of coordinating the event now over the two Sundays. Keeping the creatives organised could be likened to ‘herding cats’. We certainly keep Sue on her toes.

Sue Spiers
Sue Spiers, is a regular visitor to Burnham Quay, usually spotted painting “en plein air” come rain or shine. Here she shares her journey in creating a garden watercolour.
