Today I looked at a wonderful art exhibition by Julia McKenzie. Her great-grandfather was born in St Mawes, near Falmouth. His profession was captain of a big sailing ship - a three-master. His sea voyages took him between Britain and South America, carrying shiploads of coal or meat. Sometimes there was ice in the sea. Every day he wrote a diary. Julia has illustrated his journeys - in paint, paper and clay.
