For the past year or so I’ve done Everything Art’s Care December on holiday in Barbados in January. It’s a great prompt for each of 15 days or so when you e drawn and painted most things here and need a bit of a boost to your inspiration in your journal. Thank you Kasia Avery for so generously making this gorgeous resource free.
Sitting outside under a parasol, painting these colourful pages, using Kasia’s ideas or my own is one of life’s great pleasures.
This year’s theme was green. Not one of my favourite colours so it was a learning experience . About five more days to go.

A big thank you to Stick with Us, the bathroom showroom who ordered our new toilet and also found Jordan, a super local plumber to install it for us. The toilet arrived Within a Day and although Jordan couldn’t do it immediately it was done within a few weeks. Stick With Us were such a great company to deal with , kept us fully informed and made sure we were happy wth everything. Thanks Megan and the team!

Oh I love snowdrops. Just getting past their best now but they’ve been stunning this year. I put several plants in a pot to draw them. Love their delicacy and grace.

Not been here for a while. Daffodils and catkins. Mixed media. Can spring still be a month away?
