Painted a stream for my friends because I haven’t painted in a long time. Wishing my vacation here lasted forever. #digitalart #digitalpainting #landscape #stnectansglen #tintagel #quarantineart https://www.instagram.com/p/B-75XVTjhyB/?igshid=ej6zkluj2djc
Many neopagans regard this waterfall, St Nectan’s kieve, to be one of the holiest sites in the UK. It is close to the old seat of Dumnonia, Tintagel, which is associated with King Arthur but no Arthurian myth mentions this waterfall - however modern legends claim it has a connection to Merlin. In fact there is no literary or archaeological evidence that this was ever a sacred place for pagans. Even the claim that it was dedicated to Saint Nectan is a falsehood invented by the Victorians! The site was known as Nathan's Cave in 1799. Some claim there was a Celtic chapel there too but that is not proven either. While claims of ancient pagan and ancient Christian significance of the site are all unfounded - it cannot be denied that it is now holy to pagans who leave countless offerings of clouties and painted stones and carvings. Certainly there was an old folkloric belief in Britain that naturally forming holes had magical qualities and since this 60ft waterfall flows right through a hole, it would be reasonable to assume, without evidence that it was regarded as magical to local folk in pagan times and beyond. From my perspective a grove need not have been declared sacred in antiquity to be recognised as such now - the reason so many accept the claim that the glen is sacred is simply because it feels like it is and that is all that is needed for pagans of any era. #paganism #clouties #stnectansglen #celticmythology #witchcraft #kernow (at St Nectans Waterfalls) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0RS5IGghw2/?igshid=1ji0ls51fch25

Oversized vessel with double skinned strap handles. So far twice fired, minimally raw glazed to act as resist for next firing. Manganese Dioxide and Copper Oxide will be applied for tonal contrast and overlaid with favorite tin white and cobalt blue own recipe earthenware. The marks are minimal (for me), but will more than likely complicate further, as is my way. 30cms H x 42cms W x 39cms D. 2020/21. #stnectansglen #slow #boscastle #slipwarepottery #artpottery #feminineenergy #elementals #earth #air #fire #water #void #thisdreamthatiscornwall #notesonmypractice (at Des Models de Linda - ART) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJlkBN1Liwb/?igshid=109gwfq3n76xf
Burnished gold smattering, clear glazed to enhance depth of colour and tone. The mixing of matt and gloss surface qualities has been a recurrent feature of my practice, as have lugs, lips, handles, and component parts (alluding to how a thing is read). Focal points in the overall composition of each piece. 30cms H x 42cms W x 39cms D. 2020/21. #stnectansglen #slow #boscastle #slipwarepottery #artpottery #feminineenergy #elementals #earth #air #fire #water #void #thisdreamthatiscornwall #notesonmypractice (at Des Models de Linda - ART) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJliySlrKCk/?igshid=13c1uz7b7vvyu
‘A dog with a golden snarl’. Exterior wall of bowl that has taken an age to complete. When leather hard I carved through the layers of decorative slips, taking back to the unadulterated raw clay body. This stage can be as complex or simple as I like, depending on mood. 30cms H x 42cms W x 39cms D. 2020/21. #stnectansglen #slow #boscastle #slipwarepottery #artpottery #feminineenergy #elementals #earth #air #fire #water #void #thisdreamthatiscornwall #notesonmypractice (at Des Models de Linda - ART) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJlhL-Frn_p/?igshid=133owtogno03x
