Today's Epiphany

So, today i decided to rearrange my living room. In the middle of all of this chaos i reflected back to when i used to paint and draw back before i met my husband.

Natures wrath will not stand still any longer, she must erupt and sp… Continue

Auction

Yesterday one of my collectors informed me that he had put his collection up for sale at Plymouth Auction Rooms on November 18th. Yes I am excited about the prospect, but I am also concerned. With the former, it’s always a nice feeling seeing my old work; but with regard to the latter, my old work does make me occasionally cringe!

How To Get The Perfect Christmas Prefect

Getting the perfect present for that somebody on our list is not as hard as it may seem but of course we should always take in to consideration that perfection takes on a different meaning in everybody’s mind. For instance there are those whose love for winter sports make them the perfect candidates to receive a lovely new pair of skis or poles however if I be the case then this would be the furthest thing from my desires as I do solemnly detest anything that may have the slightest connection wi… Continue
