ARTWORK from the brush of enthusiast Anne Wallace can be viewed at a town centre library during the build-up to Christmas.

An array of 40 landscapes, sketches and floral studies produced in less than a year, have gone on show at Chester-le-Street Library.

"I've been doing it now for something like 25 years, but with the exhibition coming up it's been hard going," said Ms Wallace, pictured, who lives at nearby Hilda Park.

She was busy hanging the finished pieces, mostly acrylics, in the Station Road library's Exhibition Room at the weekend. The display will be in place until Saturday, December 21 .
