Today it’s busy busy busy. I started using the Michael Harding non absorbent gesso a few paintings ago and it’s nice. There seems to be a nice shine on the paintings without applying much or any addition oil or medium. It’s still work in progress to see if it works for me but it’s for …

I have never written much about pain in the past and until now I have not thought about why. I am not really sure why “I understand” but here goes… Firstly I think that I am honest with myself about my pain. That’s a good start. A long while ago I met someone in hospital and he …
Well at 0435 this woke us up. No idea how this happened but it’s next to housing and took 20 mins for the fire brigade to extinguish. Police are now on site but the car is a right off for sure. Nobody was hurt that is the important thing and a new mini will be …
So on last Sunday I was able to grab the painting gear and hit Musselburgh.. problems were I had only 60 or 90 minutes. It was dependant on Alexander either sleeping while his mum walks with him.. thankfully it turned out to be nearly 90 minutes but it was not quite long enough. Why, mainly …

Last Thursday was a Lovely day, cold fresh and so tempting to paint.. I thought I will do that now on the train to another hospital appointment in Glasgow. It worked out in the end but the problem was on the return journey when someone brushed my arm and now I have a pencil line …

Well it’s been a bit cold but today it’s nice and hot when out of the wind. So I decided to paint on the beach and it’s not as easy as I thought with the wind but at least it’s sunny and the beer is only 10 meters away.. Happy painting great company and inspiration …
