A quiet morning of small scale work using found object paper and a shop bought stamp pad....judicious use of some white acrylic....I am pleased with these but am astonished how tired I am. The arm recovery is very very slow! I will soon have the welcome distraction of the family arriving and duties of being a Granny to attend to. 😊
I was thrilled to bits to be ACCEPTED once again by the Society of Wildlife Artists to exhibit at the Mall Galleries in London....but what an anxious morning of packing! Anyway that's Peter off to the P.O.![]()
The piece is a linocut of the Cormorants in Stornoway Harbour...and no, I didn't photograoh it properly....not quite used to being left handed!![]()

Recovering... They say pride comes before a fall and way back in January I was going places. Out and about with my friend,Sharon.... that is until I fell on black ice and basically mashed up my should...
Bulbs are one of life's miracles. I spent the morning quietly planting 350 bulbs into wicker baskets. There was something so satisfying layering up Small Iris and.species Crocus above Narcissi and Tulips. 9 containers in total. Now we wait.....and yes it was quite a challenge using only one hand but I was determined.
Not having use of my right arm is a challenge indeed. I realise how desperate I am to tinker about with scissors and a glue stick.....I have begun a little journal using my collage box. The message PAUSE is a positive affirmation to myself that this period of recovery is a process not a life sentence and I need to maintain a sense of perspective! The ribbon came with a gift...yesterday I had a wonderful paddle along the shore all by myself with a winter plumaged Razorbill for company. (Peter was keeping a watchful eye from the car)!
