Summer Vacation Plans

 Thinking about summer vacation plans.

Strolling into local cafes for delicious food and wine is always a pleasure in France. A country where it is hard to get a bad meal.

Coastal Mornings

The weather is warming up and my thoughts are turning to visiting the seaside.I love the clear cool air offered by the little fishing ports of Norfolk and Suffolk.Sheringham, and Aldeburgh are my favourite places.

In The Garden

Spring has come at last ,we have tidied up the garden and hopefully we shall be able to sit outside.

I am trying to update some of my painting techniques using collage and mixed media.

New Knee

I have not added any new posts for a while as I have been recovering from total  knee replacement surgery and sitting for extended periods at my computer is painful.

I am rather obssessed with the subject of walking and sticks at the moment.

The weather is still wintery but it is encouraging to see spring flowers  for sale in the shops .I could not resist these daffodils and anemones.I have some old stoneware pots which are the perfect container for them.



                                                          

Spring Flowers

   Snowdrops and Aconites are appearing in some sheltered spots around the colleges and riverbanks.These are the first signs of spring and will gradually spread into large groups until they are replaced by crocuses and wind flowers.

As Dreams Unfold

Inspite of freezing cold weather two attractive models posed for our life drawing class this week.
This was a romantic scene and made me think about St Valentine's day which is not far away now.

BLEAK MID WINTER

We are approaching the time of year when we experience our coldest weather in England.Our native wild animals like this fox may be seen looking for food in the frost and snow covered  fields.
