Are you looking for aura of calm in your home? If so I may have an artistic answer for you. I always find that water has that effect on me and I often paint and draw water. This drawing was inspired by a walk in a local urban park last winter. All was gray and […]
A Fond Farewell To Some… Hello Everyone! Firstly, I would like to say thank you to everyone who attended the Open Studios event at Vernon Mill this weekend just gone. It was fantastic to see you all in-person, a real novelty in this day and age, and to showcase some of my new work. It […]
