real reflections

 

A lovely print by Ragnar Axelsson on Iceland. I had the pleasure of meeting this fine fellow when Alex Boyd organised an exhibition in An Lanntair in Stornoway. What a lovely man and brilliant work. Any of these books by him are work worth yur time looking at.

I cannot tell you how I came by the print. Please don't ask.

please don't overdo the holiday music

 

Too much festive music does my head in. 

Sorry and all that.

Just visit your neighbour and be nice to everyone.

reflections again

 

Another long time hanging in our summer parlour, a painting by Chris Cyprus who works in the old mill opposite our former house in Mossley Lancs many years ago.

forgive me

 

I have had a torrid few days.

Teeth? etc. Pain; had two out then implants started. I mean, the dentist is good, the people there nice and they did a good job but I am a tad sore. I can't eat properly and had to miss a bowls-club ladies dinner out. 

Still, I have always liked this slightly altered print from a while back so I thought it about the right time to show it again.

reflections too

 

A recent acquisition from Christine Morrison all the way from a couple of villages up t'road. Really like this work and like all the other non-me works, hangs in our summer parlour [lounge/sitting room].

Something really speaks to me in this piece. I love it

off we go

 

Have not been on the bike for ages - not even the Electric one. Me old bod doesn't seem to like it much these days. It doesn't really like much really. Bowls is just a bout ok as long as I don't overdo it. It's a pity because I love cycling.

Another local artist who made the pigments from local peat. I wish I remember her name.
