Spring has definitely arrived...🌸🌸🌸 I know it's spring when the cherry blossom appears. She's a bit early this year. #cherryblossom #gardentrees #spring

Pink cherry blossom, some in full bloom, some yet to open.

I haven't been here for some time, so here I am saying hello again with a painting I created for the PAE. It's in the Netherlands this year, raising money for Alzheimer's Research. A Stag, watching over his forest and all the other animals who live there. #pae #wildlife #art

A red deer stag in the foreground with a green background and some tree branches.

It would be so great if you could RT my Etsy shop in the twoots below/above. My🌲 jewellery orders usually make up a significant part of my income at this time of yr but the X exodus has meant I’ve only received 1 order-pretty scary income-wise. A small boost would help so much. Thankyou🌿

German painter Heinrich Gogarten (1850-1911), an expert in capturing winter's mood, was renowned for evoking its eerie stillness through light. As the nights grow longer, the setting sun burns red, and a supernatural chill fills the air... 🎨 "Sunset over the Winter Forest" #gothic #art

After the kind praise from @ryanshirlow.bsky.social yesterday here is our reworking of 'Over The Hills and Far Away'. We wanted to rethink the Georgian jingoistic jolly soldier-boy stance of the original and give the perspective of a WW1 widow. fennycompton.bandcamp.com/track/over-t... #folkmusic

My latest book is a collection of idioms, proverbs and slang from around the world. It's called The Wheel is Spinning but the Hamster is Dead and in the UK you can get it from these places (geni.us/yDxa). Outside UK, Blackwell's do free/fast international delivery... blackwells.co.uk/bookshop/pro...

The cover of The Wheel is Spinning but the Hamster is Dead: A Journey Around the World in Idioms, Proverbs and General Nonsense. Next to it is a quote from the comedian Russell Kane that reads "Extremely entertaining and very useful for new insults", although reading between the lines what Russell actually meant to say was "this is the greatest book in the history of books and you should immediately buy a copy for you and everyone you have ever met"
