...a plethora of creative nonsense...
Reading Time: 2 minutes While working on some of my recent watercolours I was trimming my paper to the longer format, and ended up with quite a few offcuts. I hate waste, so I thought what can I do with these…. Practice some more miniature landscapes, that’s what! Working …
Reading Time: 3 minutes We all know I do love a good bit of railway action, and the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway can be quite a regular haunt. I am much more into diesels, but I love a steam train as much as anyone. It was, however, the …
Reading Time: 2 minutes Of course, I took the photos from Lincoln, to work from for some watercolours. All of these are from random phone pictures in the end. The end of the weekend we went down to look round the waterfront, as this is close to the station …
Reading Time: < 1 minutes There’s been some weather inspired colours creeping out this week. The spring sun, and sunsets, misty days and a cold. Also, a few new colours. After having had to purchase new laptops and spending about £26 Million in Lincoln, I feel skint. So only 3 …

Reading Time: 3 minutes There’s been mutterings from T’Other ‘Alf that we don’t go away enough. I have to say I am quite lazy about such things, which is odd as I love getting out and the chance to actually do a bit of photography from time to time …
Reading Time: < 1 minutes Slightly inspired by cooking and Skies this week. We made duck, and my partner didn’t get hers as all the children decided to have it, then didn’t eat it. I ordered Barnsley Chops in the Beck and Call, which were far rarer than asked for. …
Reading Time: 3 minutes Facebook knows… Unsuprisingly I have had about a million and a half adverts for dubious watercolour tutorial sites crop up on my facebook recently (if you want an interesting article by the way, have a look at this) and have mostly ignored these as attempts …
Reading Time: < 1 minutes While on our first (hopefully of many) walks of the year I took a photo, as I have before, of the pine trees on Parkside Road. I’m always fascinated by these trees and (I am not sure if this is cut to avoid the road) …
