Down time

After all the excitement of setting up two exhibitions and a summer of tooth and bone infections its been great to stop and just drink coffee.

The garden is still going.  Looking a bit straggly in places, but thats mainly my neglect and the effect of the autumn chill, dampness and lack of light.

My green man is still watching over the garden and keeping track of visitors.

And I’ve chosen the picture I’ll use for my first pastel painting in YEARS……  Its almost a pastel painting as a photograph.  
One of my favourite photographs and taken not far from the house.
