This was the 5th year of the Macmillan De' Longhi art auction held at Bonham's auction house on Bond Street in Mayfair on 27th September. All funds raised from donated art work went to Macmillan cancer support. This worthy cause became a lot closer to my heart when my mother was diagnosed with myeloma this year so I didn't have to think twice about being involved with the auction.
On the night I was unable to attend so my husband and brother stepped in for me (the free bar didn't have anything to do with it apparently). I was really pleased to hear that my work sold at the auction and amused to hear about the paparazzi inadvertently photographing my husband and brother in the background behind some current young actress from Made in Chelsea. I do not admit to knowing anything at all about this programme.
