RETIRED businessman Cliff Richardson was a talented artist at school, but did not pick up his brushes again until middle age.
Now self-taught Cliff, who lived in Cold Hesleden, East Durham, before moving to Sunderland, is staging an exhibition.
Cliff recalls his headmaster had been so impressed with two of his pictures, that he had them framed and hung on display. They were later presented to his mother.
This week, it is more recent pictures on show at the Discovery Centre, Easington Village.
Admission is free. The centre opens 9am to 4pm, Monday to Friday, 11am to 4pm, weekends.
