The BA degree show at City & Guilds London Art School is now open until 26th June, free. I’m biased as a trustee of the school, but I think it’s a great show and even bought three works from the show. I didn’t take anywhere enough photos, but here are some of my highlights... #GraduateShow

From 1875 a light vessel was established on the sandbank near Eastbourne. It was the first of its kind to display a flashing light. It was nearly a century later, and after a succession of ships, until the Royal Sovereign Lighthouse came into operation in September 1971. #Bexhill
