The Replacements

And another lovely Baby Boomer, willing to sit for a thirty minute portrait sketch. It’s not easy to sit still and silent and have someone staring hard at you but it’s so interesting for me to be spending this time sketching and drawing. This is turning into so much more than a drawing project. I’mContinue reading “The Replacements”

Tea And Cake And Art And Stuff

Lashings of home made cakes and savouries, tea, coffee and art at The Workers Gallery in Ynyshir on Saturday afternoon, 10th September. Please call in and join me for a cuppa. Would be lovely to see you there 😀

Stalking The Prehistorian

Since February, I’ve been stomping across the wild places of South Wales hunting the wild megalith, stalking prehistorian Dewi Bowen and filmaker Melvyn Williams.

Melvyn has been filming throughout the months andContinue reading “Stalking The Prehistorian”

It’s a magical place and I was lucky with the weather – brilliant sunshine in an otherwise wet and dreary summer. It was unusually clear and we could look out across the sea to Blackpool in the middle distance andContinue reading “The Birkrigg Druids”

The Druid’s Temple

I spent a few days in glorious sunshine in The Lake District in Cumbria last week and I just happened to be staying a few minutes walk from Birkrigg Common where there is a lovely Neolithic double stone circle, The Druid’s Temple. Double stone circles are rare so it was a treat to be ableContinue reading “The Druid’s Temple”
