It’s reet cold in ‘eer! For those who are wondering where my studio is. Woodend mill, a dusty old cotton mill in the heart of Mossley in Lancashire. Adjacent to the canal and river and surrounding Pennine hills. I’ve done 20 long winters here so I’m as tough as old cloggs. . #artist #studio #art

Amazing how a fallen tree and all the decaying leaves and branches become so transformed into something really beautiful with a dusting of snow. Natures simplicity is perfection! #inspired #nature #artist #painting #oilpainting #art #winter #trees #snow

On my easel today…… These perfect winter days when we have snow and brilliant sunshine are so rare these days. Im old enough to remember winters that lasted for weeks with heavy snowfall here in the Pennines. It’s a slice of nostalgia for me to see this and be inspired by it.

It was like this for decades. Now it’s been abandoned and looks like it’s going to be erased forever, that’s why I have to paint it! #shedart #art

Living on the edge! I’m about 10 miles out from #manchester city centre, up on the hill is where you’ll find me. I’m currently working on a few projects, one for my exhibition at Salford art gallery in December called ‘Edge of the city’ #art

A cotton industry. Oil on canvas. I’ve got a thing for allotments in the north. A fascination that started in 2004 with the humble garden shed. #allotments #art
