Trip to France


Went to stay with friends near Bergerac, then popped over to visit artists Nichollas Hamper and Jane Corquin and their very round cat at their amazing home-made house at Verteuil sur Charente, near Angouleme. If you're in the area and want really good art lessons, pay them a visit... http://www.champgiraud.com/art.htm Contact: nichollashamper@orange.fr

Heath Street, Hampstead at night

Have been working on this for a while for David Lightbody. I did a picture of his previous flat in house in Heath Street, and the interior, and this was their next flat - the one lit up.

Abuse in Care Homes








Just as my dear old 95 year old mother has to go into a nursing home, I get asked to illustrate 'Abuse in Care Homes' for London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham. I've illustrated similar material for other councils before - the material aiming to empower people to Say No to abuse and confide in someone they trust (harder for those who can't speak for themselves).

Local Islington Scenes




I'm working on a series of cards of local landmarks (started by the ones I did at Christmas for the Islington Centre for Refugees and Migrants). London's a big city - will see how far I get, drawing it!

House painting for Mexican family

Maria found me in the last 5 minutes of a craft fair at St Stephen's Church, Pond Street, a couple of weeks ago and commissioned me to paint her and her family in front of the house they had a flat in, before they go back to Mexico on Thursday. The house has a plaque on the front saying Gerard Manley Hopkins lived there...
