Eastham Woods

This week a sunny photograph of Eastham Woods on the Wirral. The Woods are quite close to home and a beautiful place for a walk. 
I have been tidying my studio this week it is surprising how untidy it gets. Sometimes it is so nice to escape and go for a walk.
In the Winter the tree trunks look so interesting as you can see their shapes properly. Oh well back to the studio for more tidying.

Snowdrops

Visited Ness Botanic Gardens on the Wirral last week. The gardens are beautiful any time of the year even in the winter. I must have taken hundreds of photographs. This is one of snowdrops.  It was wonderful to come across them growing so soon, it makes you think that spring is not too far away.

Pratique des Arts


An Artist friend of mine was given some French magazines. While looking through them he came across one of my paintings and let me know. 
I was thrilled to find my picture had been printed in Pratique des Arts. They had even translated some of my words into French.
I ordered a copy of the magazine online as a memento. Okay it is 2014 issue, but what a wonderful thing to come across. It makes me feel so international.
