A copy of the Lottery application form has just arrived. All I can say is that I am mighty grateful that I did not have to fill it in. Dr Reeves has completed it through the Wellcome Trust educational charity […]
Used this image of Caroline today along with her story. (htttp://www.craig-y-nos.blogspot.com) . It was taken over 50 years ago and she had never seen it before. Yet it turned up in another child's photographic album.
I am still awaiting my first postcard!! There is good news though! i have heard on the grapevine that soon there will be not one but three on the way to me…my only fear is that they arrive and then […]
Full days in the studio – it's very physical working at this scale. The paintings are only 5ft x 5ft (they look so small on the blog photos) but that means that with my arms outstretched I can only just […]

My week consists of three days at my part-time job, which helps pay the bills and Wednesday, Thursday and Friday working in the art studio at the Digswell Arts Trust. Last week the value of the trust really highlighted itself […]
We're behind with marketing, so Kat and I were a bit concerned on Saturday that no one would turn up for a talk by Professor David Crouch on 'The Art of Allotments'. However, the first visitors arrived promptly at midday […]

Since the private view I have been at the exhibition space at St George's Church six days a week. Partly to make the most of the last couple of weeks 'in residence' and partly because there isn't anyone else to […]
