TWO original watercolour paintings of picturesque Downham, near Clitheroe, have been donated to the Lancashire Evening Telegraph Magic Eye Appeal.

Blackburn artist Carole Pugh, left, of Livesey Branch Road, who has exhibited her work throughout the area, has donated the original watercolours to raise cash for the appeal.

Carole's work has been published in several wildlife and nature books, as well as on greetings cards, and her work is extremely popular among art enthusiasts.
