I’ve spent the morning drinking tea and working everything out and I should be fully back up and running on Monday 2nd March (all going well!)

The first blackthorn flowers of the year that I've seen. Brightening a cold, bleak February day & surrounded by flooded water meadows. Lots of birds singing: Blue tits, wrens, robins, Song thrush, blackbirds and black headed gulls on the new lakes.
A six-petalled star flower of Blackthorn against brown twigs & branches. View across flooded water meadows where grey water reflects grey skies and electricity cables carried high above by pylons.

A little bit of something I’ve been working on that is very appropriate given the amount of snowdrops about at the moment.

This is something I’m currently working on, an update of an older piece that was originally a lino print.

I’m hoping to get everything back up and running by mid February 🤞

I’m spending January working on a few things, including new art, and staying in a state of semi-hibernation, because the pull of candles and blankets and sketchbooks and losing myself for hours down research rabbit holes is far too strong to resist!

But I’m still working on something, you’ll see 😉

Good morning.
Lichen on a tree trunk. An acorn cup lying on dead leaves. A pale sycamore leaf covered in water drops, lying on darker dead leaves. A tiny mushroom growing on a bit of broken twig, lying on dead leaves.

Sunset at the Waen Oer (cold moor) stone row
A red sunset slips into cloud over the sea. In the foreground five white sheep mill on and around the central recumbent stone between two standing stones. The moorland grass is scrubby and green with patches of rushes.

Another photo from walk in the Peak District last weekend. Sloes.
Dark blue sloes on a blackthorn tree. Lots of lichen on the branches.

Lost in the forest, I broke off a dark twig and lifted its whisper to my thirsty lips: maybe it was the voice of the rain crying, a cracked bell, or a torn heart. Something from far off: it seemed deep and secret to me, hidden by the earth, a shout muffled by huge autumns, by the moist half-open darkness of the leaves. Wakening from the dreaming forest there, the hazel-sprig sang under my tongue, its drifting fragrance climbed up through my conscious mind as if suddenly the roots I had left behind cried out to me, the land I had lost with my childhood and I stopped, wounded by the wandering scent. - Pablo Neruda

Afternoon sightseeing.
An upside down mushroom with golden brown gills and stem. Galls on a fallen oak leaf. A clump of lichen lying on dead leaves. A shaggy ink cap starting to open and darken.

Tiny,(about 2cm tall) reddish brown fungi growing on a decaying branch. They are mushroom - like in shape, but I am unable to identify them, much to my shame.

Good morning.
A parasol mushroom in front of a shaggy brown dog. A clump of red-brown mushrooms on a tree stump, being sniffed by a shaggy brown dog. Two puffballs, catching the sun. A purplish mushroom with a dead leaf on it, viewed from above.
