A walk through the forest at Dunwich before calling in at the Ship for some excellent Aspalls Cider, the Ship is a fantastic pub and a regular haunt. Then up onto the cliff top for my sketch looking towards Southwold.

Day 122 of 366, one third the way through the year. A chance today to go to the Sainsbury Centre for visual arts in Norwich to see two exhibitions. The first a fantastic exhibition by photographer Henri Cartier-Bresson, 83 magnificent images captured between 1929 and 1985 of Paris, the second a wonderful exhibition of works by Alberto Giacometti and works by artists influenced by him. Alberto Giacometti was one of the giants of twentieth century art, celebrated as a sculptor, painter and draughtsman. The exhibition commemorates the 50th anniversary of the artist’s death. http://scva.ac.uk/art-and-artists/exhibitions
