Svetlana Starikova said… Norah, thanks for organizing such a warm painting today.
When I was leaving a reception room in Botanic gardens, a man caught me. He said he is glass pavilions keeper. He said an artist groups must warn about them painting in the glass pavilions several days before. We must call gardens office. It is allow to paint in glass pavilions but they want to know about it. He stopped me. I don't know haw he recognized me as an artist.
