This is James

It was not his. It never is his fault. But you can’t help liking James. He tells stories about places you haven’t been and people you haven’t met. He is charismatic and yet illusive.

My favourite story is about the time he rode a donkey for 9 hours to meet an old lady with an important message.....you seriously can’t make this s**t up!

The home I grew up in had 5 generations of hydrangeas. I actually can’t express how much I love them. They are hardy and yet so fragile. They are big and proud but like the southern wall with shade ❤️❤️

Playing in the leaves

When we were young we had huge plane and maple trees in a corridor in front of our home. My sister, brother and I would spend hours, days creating rooms/houses out of the leaves in the yard. It was a maze for the imagination. Damn good memories.


This is a mixed media on pastel paper. ❤️❤️❤️
