Last of the snowdrops
I think I’m done with snowdrops now for this year. They’re here for such a short time that I can’t help but make use of them whilst they’re around. More snow coming apparently……….I’m done with that too!

Snowdrops in blue cup
I hope all you mummies out there had a lovely day yesterday and were thoroughly spoilt. With the rain back today, it’s feeling a bit grim but there are still snowdrops in my garden and signs of other things coming. I also managed to plant my three new roses, bought especially to paint later on […]
Hellebores and cherries

Tape them to my board! Hoping to paint some snow tomorrow although, it doesn’t seem to want to settle. Click […]
Snowdrops in a square pot
It was touch and go last night whether we would have to cancel the workshop today but, not a flurry in sight, we all managed to get there and the workshopees made some brilliant work. It warms my heart when they say they’ve learned lots and go home happy bunnies. Another one booked for tomorrow, […]
Snowdrops

That’s quite enough time spent on boring admin, readying, hanging two exhibitions, sorting painting holidays, tax returns, commissions and general faffing about. Sooo happy to be back to normal. Well, I say normal but I have my spring workshops tomorrow and Wednesday, that is if the […]
