Artist, rather fond of the Welsh coast! Drink proper beer.. Hereford FC season ticket holder, with a strange obsession for Welsh Cup football.

I'd like to thank Weltch Media for giving a platform to my musings on the increasingly challenging environment for independent print magazines.
No intention of giving up any time soon but would love ideas on how to grow subscriptions.

Public ownership works 🙌

Scotland needs cheap, reliable bus services that connect our communities.

👉We will bring Scotland's buses back into public ownership.

Blown away by this!
Some beautiful #art created by our 7 year old daughter. All her own work. Very proud, think she is following in her daddy's footsteps! #watercolourart #watercolour @michael1970art.bsky.social

Today I am very much enjoying the range of sea creatures depicted in the 1539 Carta Marina (the "Marine map and description of the Northern lands"). We know now that the ocean has even more wonderful things in it (that really exist!), but I love the brave attempt at making a then-unknown world real.

Big news...my new single 'Matches' arrives on the 8th of October, the first spark in a new chapter. Please pre-save it now - it helps me out and also means you'll get it the second it's released. So excited to be releasing new music again!

A visit to the @librarywales.bsky.social with some #enpleinair sketching. Don't often get to do this. A great place to visit even if you don't fancy drawing!

Felt tip pens eh.. never have the colours you need, unless you have a set like @susie-jane.bsky.social

Gets you to do things differently, as in this A5 sketch of Borth beach looking out to sea. Fun too
