Escape to Cornwall

I have just returned from a great weekend away with a friend to Cornwall. Rosemoor gardens on the way down, with its combinations of plants, water and veg were wonderful.

The rugged north coast was also really inspiring....go if you can!

Ellsworth Kelly plant drawings

I love these drawing.

Off on its travels

My obsession with water has been passed on and now this one (or actually 3 parts) is on its way to Germany. It is so exciting when someone is moved by your work and wants it on their own walls.
So 'Let's daydream' is off to a new life!

More water inspiration

I have been a little obsessed with water recently and have been painting abstract interpretations of water for a while now....but look how amazing and beautiful these water sources are!

and here some of my interpretation.

It is such a valuable resourse...we must treasure it.

Cut out silhouette art by Lotte Reiniger

Lotte Reiniger’s 117th birthday #GoogleDoodle https://g.co/doodle/u9jeu8

This  is a lovely little animation about  Lotte Reiniger . Her animations of fables are amazing...especially when you consider these were made before laser cutters!
Maybe a little slow for the children of today but beautiful. Do have a look at them.
