    While Sylvia Siddell’s drawing ‘Banquet’ is jumping with action, her husband Peter’s painting is the opposite, and is perfectly calm. At first it looks very real, but you will soon find that this is an invented, dreamlike landscape. The artist has deliberately left out lots of things that should be here - can you tell what’s missing?
