Artwork

Producing the website is a new experience,  lots of trial and error with WordPress software.

One thing we needed was some artwork for a logo,  we planned to approach an artist friend but then Laura came to our party and when she heard about snailcycle she drew us a great picture and so with a bit of manipulation to make it suitable for the Web we now have original artwork of a snail sat on a saddle.

Thank you Laura
