On my run this morning I met the old chap on his ancient tractor with his little hat on. He smiled at me as I ran past, "Bonjour!". The time it took for the sun to climb up over the hills, was the time it took me to have a run round the fields. Olives and peaches. The hills were the same colour...
Ok, so I am still finding my way with this blog. So bear with me, if posts are flying around your ears (!) I am finding a pace and a content that works for me. I spent the morning painting and it was soul-full. I needed that. Here are a few shots from the studio this morning. I thought this shot ^ was...
Yesterday was such a beautiful day, so many nice things happened all in one day! There is SO much to be grateful for! I was outside picking wild blackberries. I even found enough to freeze some!

Ok so my studio doesn't look exactly tidy today. But hey! What's a little fun if you can't mess about?! ;) Really like the colours in the photo, so I made this little colour snapshot! ...
How often do I just rush into things without preparing the ground first? Without making sure I am ready. Today I was sitting in my garden and thinking about preparatory work. The garden doesn't grow without the seeds planted earlier in the year. All I am seeing now, is a reflection of what was either put in or already in the ground in...
Would you look at this WONDERFUL place on the planet! This spot is the most recent place to offer my handmade sunshine greeting cards! Yay! I'll tell you all about it! But first, let me share with you how a piece of reclaimed oak transformed into a very simple display unit for the cards. First I painted the wood. With colours I just felt like dipping into...
Working on colourful images. Again. Or still. :) ...
