This is gonna be great!

I’m delighted that the Bath Art Fair is being held this year. After all the cancellations of last year, the anticipation for this event is building and I can’t wait to be there amongst so many amazing artists.

Half price weekend tickets are available at https://www.bathartfair.co.uk/tickets/
using the code HALFWEEKEND

If you’re in the area it’d be great to see you there.

Face of a very chuffed artist.

I am so delighted to be included as an exhibiting artist with Mandy and Anthony at @orielybont in Aberystwyth.

What a privilege to be in such a lovely gallery amongst such amazing artists: the art on the walls is absolutely stunning.

It felt lovely to be bringing my art to this lovely town where my Mum’s family are from, and where I went to uni. The gallery is just a few yards from where I lived as a student, so it felt extra great to be here. Is that daft?

Thanks for such a great welcome: I’m so looking forward to working with you both.

Do you wanna build a snowman?

Well my wish for our Christmas adventure to the Derbyshire and Yorkshire Dales was answered, and we woke to a lovely layer of snow.

What is it about a layer of snow that enchants so? I love the way the lines and shapes of the landscape become simplified, and contrasts become black or white- no grey. Everything is less complicated. Simply Stunning.

It was irresistible: I couldn’t wait to get out in it. You’ve just got to throw snowballs and make a snowman now haven’t you.

Wonderful, soul recharging, Christmas adventure.

Nadolig llawen a Blwyddyn newydd dda pawb. ❤️❤️ Merry Christmas and a happy new year everyone.

What a perfect Christmas present to learn that ‘On the Cape’ sold from @orielcoffi in Llanidloes today. Thank you Iestyn and Jenna for including me in your lovely gallery.

Thank you to everyone for your support, encouragement and for coming along with me on my crazy artistic journey. It means a great deal to know that you’re there.

So from a rather wet, and tinsel-clad Christmas Eve bike ride, I send my heartfelt best wishes for a safe and happy Christmas, and hope 2022 is kind to us all. ❤️

Lobster gloves day!!!

I’m having a bit of a break from the studio for a couple of weeks: exploring new landscapes on foot and on the bicycle.

Today it was High Peak and White Peak: stunning scenery and glimpses of ancient industries peaking out from the vegetation. Even did some proper off roading to the disdain of the local sheep!! Well muddy. Fabulous.

It was flippin Baltic though and I was well chuffed I wore my balaclava and ‘lobster gloves’… so cosy.

This is a fairly new part of the world to me, and I am rapidly falling in love with it. I’ve brought art kit with me, so I reckon it’ll be appearing in some sketches soon. I might not be in the studio, but it doesn’t mean I won’t be arting about!!! 😂😂

It’s finally DONE!!! 🎉🎉🎉

Who knew it would take so damn long???

What am I talking about??? 🤔

Getting all my new work on to my website!

It’s been a bit of a nightmare: we have been without reliable useable internet since the end of October- so between the odd good patch (which for us is 1meg) and my phone as a hotspot, it’s been a laborious process.

I finished late last night just as the last little bit of data chugged out of my phone!!! What a relief!!

Anyway: it’s done and all my newest work is now up on my website for all to see. It’s like my own little art gallery. Do take a look and let me know what you think.

In the new year we are apparently having a special antenna fitted and we’ll actually be able to access the internet properly and even stream stuff!!! Sorry: did I forget to mention we live in a cave!!!! 😂😂😂

Sense of place. Walking around my ‘place’ on

Sense of place.

Walking around my ‘place’ on the mountain, speaking into the voice recorder on my phone was such a revelation: it made me totally conscious of what was around me, the only sense I didn’t use was taste, and if there had been any bilberries left I’d have eaten those!!!

It made me focus on why this place appeals so much: it’s the way the ancient mining scars are being reclaimed and softened by nature- it’s the way the two, natural and man made, work together to create this landscape: the way the unnatural is becoming natural.

I also became aware that, in terms of objects, there actually wasn’t a lot I could collect: different stones from the mining spoil heaps, soil and dead grasses and bracken (I didn’t want to pull up the living mosses and lichens which make up so much of the ground cover here). So the discovery of a piece of old tin sheet sticking out of the spoil and a rusted old hoop of barbed wire brought me enormous delight. It was like a little bit of treasure- a clue to what and who went before. And look at how the colours of the natural harmonise with the unnatural.

I loved doing this- I’m going to do it again and again. Thank you @sallyhirstartist for suggesting this idea as a means of accessing that sense of place and using new #approachestoabstraction in ways I haven’t done before.

Not petulant- no not at all!!! 😂😂 Best laid

Not petulant- no not at all!!! 😂😂

Best laid plans for getting back up on to the mountain are being thwarted by the weather. I really really really want to go and do some rubbings, collect materials and do some more photography……….

I managed a quick hour yesterday but efforts were curtailed by the cloud dropping on me like a heavy wet sponge!!

Well exasperated and couldn’t settle to sketching, so I’m taking it out on the studio!!!!

Tomorrow I’m going to the mountain! So there!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
