A painting on a round teabag popped up in my Instagram feed recently. It was really well done: a dark background with a boat seen from above. Actually, I mentioned it before. It was the inspiration for my rowing boat...Read More

Maybe it's the time of year (not my favourite, as I've explained previously). Or maybe it's just circumstances. Maybe both. My mind has been buzzing over the last week. Not always in a productive way. Sometimes art for me is...Read More

Rivers scare me. In the 1960s, when I lived in Glenageary, a neighbour drowned in the river Shannon. I overheard a conversation that suggested that he was wearing wellingtons when he fell off his boat and that they sucked him...Read More

It's that 'back to school' time of year, when people take a deep breath, gird their loins and get ready for the return to term time routine. It's not my favourite time of year, to be honest. I love the...Read More
Atchoooooo! Echinacea.

Atchoooooo! Echinacea.

But before I tell you about them, I did this. It's a copy of something I found on Pinterest, done in pencil in my notebook. It could be better but it's OK. I'll do it again, but better, in paint...Read More

The art-related things I did when I was away on holiday were all quite structured. They were about trying to represent things on paper that I saw or saw and captured in a photograph. The stuff you'll see below is...Read More

I've been on me holliers with Christine. We flew to Vienna, spent a couple of days there, then cycled from Vienna to Budapest, via Bratislava, and had a few days extra in Budapest. We cycled 350k. The cycle generally followed...Read More
