Silence lays like lace around my mind

Emotional is a word I get alot with regard to my paintings, but rarely has one piece brought up so much emotion, from me but mostly the parents of the children in my daughter’s class. I wanted to say Thankyou to their teacher (because she is awesome) so I worked this up for her on a huge piece of watercolour paper. We gave it to her today, and it was a kind of magical moment, to see her face and her reaction. Think I might do it again one day. #greatteacher Love Wimbledon Wimbledon Art Studios Wimbledon Scene ... See MoreSee Less

As the husband of a head teacher, brother in law of two head teachers, cousin of another and step father/ father in law to two more and uncle of another three- bloody brilliant. My wife is quite emotional about it!!

How wonderful, a beautiful gift. I’d have sobbed!

Beautiful! Love it! ❤️

A pair. Working in pairs works for me - particularly when looking at trees, I love the way they are neighbours for so very long, they grow together, the space in between them. Still enjoying reawakening with oils. Wimbledon Art Studios Love Wimbledon Wimbledon Scene #wimbledoncommon #londonartist ... See MoreSee Less

Forty years ago today, a beautiful soul left this world, left me actually also - he was 17, stupid car accident, wasted life. This poem has always been mine for him. Scratchy photo and just memories now. He was someone who changed my life in so many little and important ways and helped make me who I am now and I am grateful for that. I wanted to mark this day. His name is Alex. One more arrow. Love to his family ❤️ from me. ... See MoreSee Less
