Paper Faces - The Human Psyche
FACES. We all have them. They fascinate me. Expressions in particular - from subtle to extreme.

OLD PAPER. These too share qualities of human expression. From long ago handwritten notes, aged newspapers and maps to worn paper stained with time. In this series of prints, I combine them to create whimsical "stories" about the nature of being human.

into the garden - summer blooms
This is the third in a series of paintings that illuminate the transformative beauty of the natural world. To visually express how total immersion into the deep colors of gardens and wild spaces can create a profound sense of peace; restore wonder; and generate calm in an increasingly chaotic world.

Planted extra #snowdrop bulbs in the green at the weekend. Did not take long at all—just as well, there was an icy wind, which made being outside unpleasant—and gave me a chance to use my new #Hori Hori knife for the first time.
Despite its name, it is not a knife but a #Japanese #trowel. Manufacturer suggests to use it as an all-round weeder, bulb-planter and general subterranean rummager.
They also call the Hori Hori a weed digging, plant dividing, seed drilling, bulb planting, pot scraping, stone prising, ivy removing, subterranean rummaging, life saving, rooting tooting all round game-changer.
Hm … After using it once I think that they may have a point.
