Just to share a little of how I see the world.

It's been said that jays and magpies collect shiny things. I'm not sure that's scientifically true, but I know I collect pretty little images, especially of flowers.

All I have to see is a flash of an interesting colour, and I'm there!

I hope you enjoy the past few days' crop!

The real "sepia" has arrived!

You may remember my family had bought me a set of watercolour paints (for my birthday), finding the all different colours from a number of suppliers.

It was a really lovely gift!

Unfortunately, one of the suppliers had sent a half-pan of "sepia" paint which was actually blue, not the brown it was supposed to be, and then they relied on a time-limit for returns which landed before my birthday.

But now, a fair time after, I've managed to source the right "sepia" from a more reliable supplier, so I can use the full set!

Do you like having a "full" collection of things too?

I think it may be a part of many of our natures to "collect".

I feel incredibly privileged to have seen the red kites being fed at Gigrin Farm, Rhayader, last week, and wanted to share a few photos of it with you!

May I share some creativity with you? 🎨

I just couldn’t resist the wordplay!

It’s been a busy month! So I hope, if the pun isn’t to your liking, something else in May's creative output cheers your day! 🧑‍🎨

This month in my "Alphabet of Art" I intended to move on from last month's "A is for Art" to B and talk about balance, but I got distracted by ACEOs and after a fair amount of research, I decided to tell you about them instead!

You can read more about this delightful and largely undiscovered part of the artworld in the notes to my YouTube video at:

Thanks!

Thank you very much for all the lovely messages, posts and stories, and to those who attended the evening reception last night, in support of my participation in the Eddisbury Artists exhibition in Gallery 1 at Castle Park Arts Centre, Frodsham WA6 6SE (open now Tues-Sat, 10-4, till 27th June).

We had a great evening, and there seems to have been sales made already in all the galleries, with three in ours and Gallery 2 (a fundraiser where everything is just £20 - including the 5 extra paintings I submitted) especially busy!

Thank you again!

Today I’d like to show you my Helleborus Orientalis, which I have drawn by literally depositing grains of silver on specially prepared paper, in the same way as Leonardo Da Vinci, Sandro Botticelli, Raphael, and Jan van Eyck employed “silverpoint” to create their drawings before pencils became routinely available!

My original A5 size drawing is £55 including UK postage, or £75 framed. Please just email me at [email protected] to arrange your purchase.

And it’s also available as prints and printed on all sorts of lovely things at:

"Silverpoint Drawing of a Helleborus Orientalis" is a piece I got very excited about when I created it in April 2026, because it was my firs

Thanks! And have a great bank holiday weekend, everyone!

I was fortunate enough to see these lovely flowers walking back from a routine medication review at my local GPs' practice in Weaverham today.

So which should I paint first:

the allium/bistort,

the pink rose,

the purple bearded iris, or

the rhododendron?

Thanks!
