A Strange Bird on wood panel


I've been very busy lately. I started a new job at Gallery Gachet. I've met so many lovely people the past two weeks I've blown over. And school requires lots of reading and concentration.

I did this painting spontaneously. Normally I plan, draw with pencil on the canvas and then start the endless layers of oil.

Here's to happy days!

Landing pads i.e. foxglove

Whenever I see this kind of plant, I can't help but think "landing pads".

Last year a bumble bee landed on my nose by mistake. It landed, paused for a second and then seemed to realize it wasn't in the right spot and flew off!

Breakfast at Sulimay's music reviews by an older generation

It appears that after the first episode, a charming woman called Ann appears on the show, she replaces one of the original group. I like the first episode because they review a Joanna Newson song. I don't understand the appeal of her music...and I don't think they do either!

Potato Benevolence shop news

I bought a new Epson printer. The quality of K3 Ultrachrome ink is wonderful. So, I decided to start offering photographic prints. There won't be tonnes, but there will be enough to offer a wider selection of prints to all those potatoes out there!

I love photography, so it does make sense.

I think that rabbit is going to eat all the plants in the window conservatory...! Then there will be nothing to look at anymore. Sad.
