Sully - art exhibition


I have just received a booklet on Sully from Jane Foreman, daughter of Dr  Bill Foreman, superintendent at Sully hospital.

It contains some fascinating photographic insights into life there and I was particularly interested in one photograph of an art exhibition put on by patients.

For it was an occupational art therapist in Sully who first introduced me to the world of drawing and painting though many years were to elapse before I became a full time student at Glasgow School of Art in the mid 1990s.

So, thank-you Jane for letting me see this booklet. It will provide an invaluable resource for this project.
